Who bears the cost when it is assumed that simply implementing content regulations automatically leads to in-depth research and analysis? For small creators and local cultural industries, regulation without a rigorous assessment can prove to be more of a burden than an advantage.
Organizations like CEIM or FICDC can only produce relevant studies with clear mandates and dedicated funding, which are not automatic consequences of the existence of a law.
For example, if a regulation imposes quotas without monitoring mechanisms for small producers, the lack of data deprives research of its fuel.
It is not the regulation itself that is being questioned, but the assumption that it generates its own system of analysis and correction, leaving vulnerable parties exposed.
