WASHINGTON, Jan. 29 (Yonhap) – The U.S. Chamber of Commerce expressed concerns Monday over South Korea’s proposed regulations aimed at preventing unfair market activities by major online platform businesses.
Charles Freeman, senior vice president for Asia at the U.S. Chamber, issued a statement opposing Seoul’s push for the rules designed to step up oversight over market-dominant players to ensure fair competition.
Industry watchers forecast that major platform operators, including Naver, Kakao, Google and Apple could be subject to the rules should they be enacted.
Apparently (see a comment on the original post), the “Chamber” is a private lobbying group and not a part of any official USA government institution.
Ahh. That explains a lot. I’ll take some of it back then.

Not your fault, they’re deliberately named that way to be confused with an actual government agency. And yes, they suck.
