Summary

In the European Union, policy makers and scholars have been discussing whether the modern data economy is in need of data ownership rights for quite some time. The European Commission has so far taken a regulatory approach, in particular considering a potential data producer’s right to promote access to machine-generated data.2 In response to this, the Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition,3 and the author of this chapter as an individual scholar,4 have advised the Commission and other policy makers against new exclusive ownership rights in data.
