poorly defined and vague. what is "gate keeping"? what is a "level playing field"?

migration of what? what is envisioned by open standards? what is a free choice?




It's intentionally vague and poorly defined. That's the point.

They want the government to hamper the competition. The less defined the better if that's your aim.

They want to spur government movement on the subject broadly, not pursue a very specific course of action.
