Regulators both in the EU and the Indo-Pacific region have often faced challenges when tackling new issues stemming from these developments, and policymakers have taken time to address them. Yet over the past five years or so, EU lawmakers have adopted an impressive set of new instruments that aim at addressing some of the most pressing concerns regarding the economy, democracy, fundamental rights, and even the infrastructures necessary to develop and operate digital technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this <strong>four-part podcast series<\/strong>, we explore <strong>how the European Union is reshaping the rules of the digital economy.<\/strong> Why did the EU decide to regulate the world\u2019s largest online platforms? How should social media balance freedom of expression with user safety? Can artificial intelligence be regulated without stifling innovation? And why have semiconductor chips become one of the most strategic resources in today\u2019s geopolitical landscape?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Across the series, we explain the key features of <strong>four landmark pieces of European legislation<\/strong> \u2013 the<strong> Digital Markets Act<\/strong>, the <strong>Digital Services Act<\/strong>, the <strong>AI Act<\/strong>, and the <strong>European Chips Act<\/strong>. Rather than focusing only on legal doctrine, we discuss the real-world problems these laws seek to address, how they affect businesses and citizens, and why they matter well beyond Europe, including in the Indo-Pacific region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you are a lawyer, a law student, a policymaker, or simply curious about how technology is transforming our societies, this series offers an accessible introduction to some of the most important digital regulations of our time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<center>\n  <iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/z6IcxHZVwlU?si=cUysPhf1OXaeEtpK\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n<\/center>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Episode 1 | Taming the economic power of large online platforms with the Digital Markets Act<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first episode explores the Digital Markets Act (DMA), the EU\u2019s landmark regulation aimed at the largest online platforms, known as \u201cgatekeepers\u201d. We discuss why a handful of digital companies have acquired such significant economic power, why traditional competition law was no longer considered sufficient, and how the DMA introduces a new <em>ex ante<\/em> approach to regulating digital markets. Through practical examples \u2013 including TikTok\u2019s designation as a gatekeeper \u2013 we explain what the new rules require, how they are enforced, and why they have become a source of international debate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ubdxi2kCNRk?si=wYQlufg1Qutxeong\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/center>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Episode 2 | Social media regulation under the Digital Services Act<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Social media has transformed the way we communicate, but it has also created new challenges ranging from illegal content and disinformation to online harms affecting children and democratic processes. In this episode, we examine the Digital Services Act (DSA), which establishes a new framework for regulating online intermediaries, including the largest social media platforms. We discuss transparency, accountability, systemic risks, freedom of expression, and the growing international debate over how best to protect users while preserving an open internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/L8TERfybPY0?si=u1r1UAFwmHpNjJER\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/center>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Episode 3 | Building safe artificial intelligence systems under the Artificial Intelligence Act<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Artificial intelligence is often presented as a revolutionary technology, but how should it actually be regulated? This episode introduces the EU\u2019s AI Act, the world\u2019s first comprehensive legal framework for artificial intelligence. We explain its risk-based approach, the different categories of AI systems, the obligations imposed on developers and users, and the central role of fundamental rights. We also discuss whether regulation can keep pace with technological change and compare the European approach with developments in the United States, China, South Korea, and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JD_MpP1U_1E?si=Hw3_lJau16rHnG03\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/center>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Episode 4 | Securing semiconductors\u2019 supply chains with the European Chips Act<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Advanced semiconductor chips have become one of the world\u2019s most strategic technologies, powering everything from smartphones and cars to artificial intelligence. In the final episode, we examine why semiconductor supply chains have become a geopolitical priority, what Europe hopes to achieve through the European Chips Act, and how the regulation seeks to strengthen innovation, investment, and supply chain resilience. We also discuss the role of Taiwan, state aid, industrial policy, the environmental impact of digital technologies, and the growing importance of the Indo-Pacific region in the global race for technological leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6bsdva--_dU?si=fDcuLCQTUbfnLGWC\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/center>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Soundtrack features music licensed under the mobygratis agreement.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Co-funded by the European Union.
