Very interesting talk by @BenCrum from @vuamsterdam
at @Weizenbaum_Institut panel on #Governance & #Regulation 👏

🇪🇺 'Politicising Digital Policy in the #EU '

His study found that press coverage on regulating #DSA & #DMA is rather issue-oriented rather than choice-oriented.

Also the focus on the European Commission depolicizes the coverage, Ben Crum argues.

Research on the watered down #AIAct will follow.

Is #AI messing with our #democracy? In his #WIConf25 keynote @claesdevreese looks at the evidence from elections in 2024. It‘s part of the campaign toolkit rather than a magic wand.

What is the role of digital infrastructures in the current challenges for liberal democracies?
What do they mean for vulnerable people, for activists and for #democracy as a whole? The #WIConf25 offers insights into the latest research with speakers from over 25 countries and multiple diciplines.

Opening remarks by the Conference Chairs Clara Iglesias Keller and Jakob Ohme
