Apple’s new terms not only disregard both the spirit and letter of the #DMA, but if left unchanged, they make a mockery of it and the considerable efforts by the #EC and EU institutions to make digital markets competitive. EPC joins wide group of businesses writing to the EC:

Google faces EU break-up order over anti-competitive adtech practices https://t.co/YZA8mk20LV @Reuters @EUReuters @ReutersTech @ReutersBiz @ReutersLegal @thomsonreuters

[Margrethe Vestager @vestager]

.@Google controls both sides of the #adtech market: sell & buy. We are concerned that it may have abused its dominance to favour its own #AdX platform. If confirmed, this is illegal. @EU_Commission might require Google to divest part of its services.

@RishiSunak @sama @demishassabis @AnthropicAI @OpenAI @DeepMind Want to demonstrate leadership? Announce today that AI models may only be trained on data & creative works with the explicit affirmative consent of the person(s) affected. This simple act will reinforce personal sovereignty & agency in a challenging technological universe.

Good to hear Altman is positioning himself on the side of copyright to ensure creators are paid for the value they create: "We're trying to work on new models where if an AI system is using your content, or if it's using your style, you get paid for that," @AxelVossMdEP
