| Description | The paper analyzed the European data regulation system through a combination of legal semiotics and economic theory. Data were examined across three levels: syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic. The syntactic level focused on the structure and nature of data, the semantic level on their meaning in relation to objects and subjects, and the pragmatic level on the functions and purposes of data, including their usage regimes. This analysis highlighted the importance of legal and economic approaches to data as specific informational goods. At the pragmatic level, the paper distinguished between public, club, and private data. Public data, such as open datasets held by public institutions, promote general use and accessibility. Club data are accessible only to restricted groups due to legal regulations (intellectual property protection, contractual safeguards, or trade secret protection). Private data, such as cryptocurrencies or NFTs, are regulated through technical measures that establish their exclusivity and rivalrous nature. These distinctions demonstrated how regulation shapes access to and utilization of data within the data economy. |
