SHARE
President Joe Biden today appointed Columbia University law professor Tim Wu to the National Economic Council, in a move seen as a sign that tech giants could face stronger scrutiny in Washington.
Wu (pictured) is a prominent and longtime critic of the technology industry’s largest players. At the National Economic Council, he is taking on the role of special assistant to the president for technology and competition policy.
The New York Times reported this morning that Wu will work not only on competition policy but also on a number of related areas. He will reportedly focus on topics such as labor policy and the concentration of market power among major players in the agriculture and pharmaceutical sectors.
