Adjudication Or Legislation? Google's Play Store Battle Before The CCI And The Future Of Digital Competition Law In India
As the world evolves, every economy is now making progress towards becoming a technology-driven economy and there is an ongoing debate to bring specific changes to the competition law for a technology-driven economy. The prevailing view, however, is that the existing Competition Act, 2002 (Competition Act) already reaches several technology-based claims, and major jurisdictions have stretched their competition statutes to cover platform conduct rather than wait for bespoke digital-market legislation.

Copy, Right? ANI Media Pvt. Ltd. v. Open AI OpCo LLC
When an artificial intelligence system is trained on copyrighted news content, and later answers a user’s question using what it learned, has the law been broken?
