Anti-monopoly laws in various jurisdictions have held different policy positions on whether to regulate exploitative abuse, and these behaviors conducted by platforms have driven the reflection and exploration of these policies. The research on anti-monopoly legislation, law enforcement and judicial practice of regulating exploitative abuse of platforms in various countries (regions) shows that regulating exploitative abuse of platforms should adhere to the following principles in order to ensure realization of the fair trade objective in the platform economy: ①Enforcing anti-monopoly law to platform, the regulation of exploitative abuse should not change the consensus that the focus of anti-monopoly law regarding regulating abuse of market dominance remains on exclusionary abuse. ②The regulation of exploitative abuse of platforms should follow the analytical framework of the abuse regulation by anti-monopoly law in each jurisdiction and it requires the consequential element of “significant unfair trading” and the prerequisite of“ difficulties in pursuing other legal remedies”. It is therefore proposed that Article 6 of the current China’s Anti-monopoly Law should be amended as follows: Operators with a dominant market position shall not abuse its market dominance to exclude or restrict competition, or to significantly damage the legitimate rights and interests of the trading counterparty. |
