A shift towards a simpler and more workable digital
regulation
In November 2025, the European Commission proposed the Digital
Omnibus, which aims to make parts of the EU's digital
regulation easier to work with. The proposal affects several key
laws, including GDPR and the AI Act, and aims to simplify rules and
reduce unnecessary administrative burden for businesses.
Over the past few years, the EU has introduced a large number of
digital rules. While the overall goals are widely supported, many
companies have struggled with overlapping requirements, unclear
concepts and multiple reporting obligations. In practice, this has
led to higher compliance costs and legal uncertainty, especially
for companies operating across borders.
