The DMA is meant to push us toward a world where you decide which software runs on your devices, where it’s easy to find the best products and services, where you can leave a platform for a better one without forfeiting your social relationships , and where you can do all of this without getting spied on.

If it works, this will get dangerously close to better future we’ve spent the past thirty years fighting for.

There’s just one wrinkle: the Big Tech companies don’t want that future, and they’re trying their damndest to strangle it in its cradle.

Il nuovo Digital Markets Act (DMA) dell'Unione Europea è una bestia complessa e dalle molte gambe, ma alla base è un regolamento che mira a rendere più facile per il pubblico controllare la tecnologia che usa e su cui fa affidamento.

Una regola del DMA obbliga le potenti aziende tecnologiche "gatekeeper" ad autorizzare gli app store di terze parti. Ciò significa che l'utente, proprietario di un dispositivo, può decidere a chi affidare il software che gli viene fornito.

Un'altra regola impone ai gatekeeper tecnologici di offrire gateway interoperabili a cui possano collegarsi altre piattaforme, in modo che possiate smettere di usare un client di chat, passare a uno concorrente e continuare a connettervi con le persone che avete lasciato (misure simili potrebbero arrivare in futuro anche per i social media).

C'è una regola che vieta il "self-preferencing". Questo è il caso in cui le piattaforme spingono i loro prodotti interni, spesso inferiori, e nascondono i prodotti superiori realizzati dai loro rivali.
