“Implications of the US Withdrawal of Support for Extreme Big Tech “Trade” Provisions for Developing Countries”

Governments around the world are expanding regulatory oversight over the powerful tech sector. What implications might the new regulatory projects – the AI Act, the Digital Services Act, the Digital Markets Act, and the Data Act in Europe, and similar efforts other countries – have for talks on binding trade rules, and for the policy space for developing countries to shape the future of the digital economy? These regulations and proposals cover source code and algorithms; data governance; tax policy; interoperability; and myriad other provisions in common with the digital trade negotiations. What are the best practices for inclusive digital policies, in the context of the Agenda 2030, the provisions in the Secretary-General’s “Our Common Agenda?”
