At the beginning of our Future of Democracy conference in Brussels (October 15, 2025), Dr. Courtney Radsch (director of the Center for Journalism & Liberty at Open Markets) and Max von Thun (Open Markets Institute’s Europe director), laid out the two major threats to Europe that the conference would investigate:
1) U.S. tech platforms (Google, Meta, X, etc.) wielding unprecedented capacity to shape political discourse across Europe, through algorithmic prioritization, deplatforming, and indirect censorship.
2) The U.S. government coordinating with these firms, under the language of “free speech,” to pressure Europe to scale back enforcement of its digital laws, the DSA/DMA — painting European regulation as foreign censorship.
This is not a trade dispute — it is a battle over who governs the infrastructure of information. If Europe yields, it risks permanent loss of sovereignty over its digital public square. For more, read their policy brief on the same topic https://www.openmarketsinstitute.org/...
