Did someone read the actual proposal? Article doesn't make sense: free access to some data sets and remove competition rules to improve competition? Hope it's not another incumbent lobby group carving I better deal for themselves.
The more time goes, the more I’m disappointed at how out of touch with reality EU legislation is when it comes to technology related issues. I still don’t get why the EU Cookie law put the burden on websites instead of forcing browsers to offer better, more accessible cookie management.
The same is true for other non-tech fields. For example, MiFID 2.
There's no specifics mentioned in that article, other than new commons data standards across the industries (good idea IMO).
