Digital Single Market

On 6 May 2015, the European Commission, led at the time by Jean-Claude Juncker, created the Digital Single Market strategy. The strategy was intended to remove virtual borders to increase connection on the internet and make it easier for consumers to have access of online content across the European Union.[1]
