— Meglena Kuneva
European Consumer Commissioner

• “If personal data is the currency of the digital
world, then where are the banks?”
• And the exchanges?
• And all the other institutions and instruments we
have developed for storing, managing, and
trading (money)?
• We are in the very early days of becoming a
digital society and digital economy...

The Political Economy of the Internet Today

“Digital Feudalism”
• We don’t own our
names
• Or our bodies
• Or personal property
or a domicile
• We lack freedom of
movement and
expression
• Our labor benefits the
lords of the manor
who own the land
• We are “data serfs”

Towards a New
Political Economy of the Internet

“Digital Enlightenment”
• Human Rights
• Property Rights
• Civil Society
• Free Markets
