Several tech trade groups in Washington said the industry does not want the European approach to digital regulation to be adopted in the United States."The risk is that the European side will press the United States to harmonize its regulations with the EU by taking a precautionary approach... which would skewer America's leading tech companies," said Robert Atkinson, president of the Information Technology & Innovation Foundation, a tech think tank based in Washington.
"We shouldn't do that, nor do we need to. Our interests are broadly aligned and compatible, particularly when it comes to China," Atkinson said.
