DOT Europe

DOT Europe supports the objectives of the Digital Omnibus and AI Omnibus initiatives as steps towards simplifying the EU digital regulatory framework by reducing reporting obligations, clarifying rules and addressing overlaps between different pieces of legislation.

DOT Europe welcomes the opportunity to contribute to the Digital Package and supports efforts to simplify the EUs digital regulatory landscape. It argues that Europes competitiveness depends on consistent, clear, and innovation-friendly rules, and that the current digital framework has become fragmented through overlapping legislation such as the GDPR, DSA, Data Act, and AI Act.

DOT Europe welcomes the European Commissions Call for Evidence on the DNA and supports efforts to modernise Europes connectivity framework to meet the goals of the Digital Decade. A regulatory environment that promotes investment and innovation is essential, and all future policy proposals should follow the principles of Better Regulation, ensuring intervention only where clear market failures are identified.

EDiMA welcomes the opportunity to provide feedback on this Roadmap. EDiMA and its members can offer insight into the interplay between the technical aspects of AI and its broader impact on the economy and society, and are committed to maximising the benefits of AI for Europe. While the current and potential benefits of AI are numerous, concerns about AI are important and legitimate, and should not be discounted.

DOT Europe, representing leading online service providers in Europe, argues that the EU already has the legislative tools needed to navigate the intersection of AI and copyright, and that new regulatory burdens should be avoided until existing rules are properly enforced and the AI Act has had time to bed in.

DOT Europe appreciates the opportunity to contribute to the Digital Fairness Act (DFA) public consultation. We hope the evidence provided will support the European Commissions assessment as to whether any clear gaps exist and, if so, the appropriate and proportionate way to address these gaps.

DOT Europe welcomes the opportunity to comment on the contents of the White Paper How to master Europes digital infrastructure needs?. It puts forward some interesting ideas, such as regulatory simplification that could help promote connectivity hand-in-hand with economic competitiveness.

DOT Europe – the voice of leading digital, online and tech companies in Europe – believes that the DSA has enormous potential. While there are significant details to iron out during the legislative process, we believe that the purpose of the DSA and the opportunity it represents must be kept in mind throughout.

EDiMA welcomes the opportunity to provide feedback to the Commission on this IIA. Given our role at the heart of the digital economy, EDiMA and its wide variety of members can offer first-hand insight into the evolving nature of technology and EU citizens’ relation to it. We are eager to use our shared experience to be a constructive driver of the DSA discussions.

DOT Europe welcomes the European Commissions Digital Fitness Check as an opportunity to simplify and rationalise the EU digital rulebook, which has expanded significantly over the past decade. While these rules aim to support the Digital Single Market and ensure high standards of consumer protection, safety and privacy, their rapid development has created overlaps, duplication and legal uncertainty for companies…

DOT Europe welcomes the opportunity to contribute to the European Commissions evaluation and update of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD). We represent both video-on-demand (VoD) providers and video-sharing platforms (VSPs) and therefore represent a broad spectrum of services regulated under the Directive.

Keeping children safe, online is undisputedly of utmost importance for DOT Europe members. Our members, representing the leading internet companies, all have the same objective and the same obligation: protecting their users and helping prevent abuse of the most vulnerable users: children.

EDiMA feedback to the inception impact assessment on fairness in platform-to-business relations EDiMA, the European trade association representing online platforms and other innovative tech companies, continues to be an active participant in the Commission’s information-gathering exercises on P2B relations and appreciates the work on this issue.

DOT Europe welcomes the Commissions initiative to develop an EU action plan against online fraud. Fraud is increasingly organised, cross-border and technology-enabled, and no single sector or Member State can address it alone.

With the General Data Protection (Regulation 2016/679, GDPR) approaching five years since its formal entry into force, DOT Europe welcomes the European Commissions initiative to support the robust enforcement of the GDPR and believes that the time is right to consider the operation of this landmark regulation to see what worked well, what did not and what could work better as well as of course identifying why.
