“What has big tech ever done for us?“ Towards a 21st century competition policy (Reboot 2018)

Increasing skepticism about the influence and power of big tech companies has given rise to expanded calls for government to break up, punish or regulate the tech industry. We’ll bring together experts on all sides to debate the impact of big tech on society, and whether we need to rethink competition policy for the modern era. Moderated three way debate. Speakers: Hal Singer, Principal at Economists Incorporated; Matt Stoller, Fellow at the Open Markets Institute; Geoff Manne, President and Founder at the International Center for Law and Economics; Corynne McSherry, Legal Director at the Electronic Frontier Foundation (Moderator)
