Rethinking the Path to Digital Platform Regulation in Brazil: a Critical Appraisal of DMA-inspired Bill 2.768/22

Inspired by other initiatives of ex ante regulation in digital markets, the Brazilian Bill 2.768/22 targets digital service providers that control essential access to certain services. If the bill is approved by Congress, it will cover various digital platforms, such as social networks, messaging services and search engines, imposing obligations related to transparency, fair service provision, data handling and access for professional users. Enforcement mechanisms include fines, operational restrictions and the creation of the Digital Platforms Oversight Fund to support regulatory activities. This article critically examines Bill 2.768/22, comparing it to the European Union Digital Markets Act and similar statutory provisions from other jurisdictions, most notably Article 19a of the German Competition Act and the United Kingdom's recently approved Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act. The article highlights shortcomings of the Brazilian Bill under discussion that would need to be addressed in order to avoid potential negative impacts in innovation and other distortions in Brazilian digital markets.
