Abstract:

The connotation of internet platform interconnection includes subjective and objective levels, and gradually expands from a single dimension to multiple dimensions. Competition law has fully played the role of setting disputes related to internet platform interconnection, and has gradually clarified the relevant rules of platform interconnection in case exploration. In the future, the legal evaluation and regulation of internet platforms’ refusal to interconnection will still be carried out on a case-by-case basis within the framework of existing rules such as the Anti-Monopoly Law and the Anti-Unfair Competition Law. At the same time, with the gradual improvement of the legal system of internet platform, the boundary of Internet platform interconnection will be clarified through the implementation of other legal rules.

Key words: internet platform, interconnection, anti-unfair competition law, anti-monopoly law
