Nathalie Maréchal leads RDR’s policy engagement with stakeholders in government, civil society, and academia; coordinates the development of RDR’s policy positions; and publicly represents RDR with the media and at conferences around the world. She is the lead author of RDR’s “It’s the Business Model” report series (2020), which argues that tech companies’ failures to staunch the flow of problematic content and disinformation online are rooted in their surveillance-based business models, and that policy solutions should focus on privacy and corporate governance rather than content itself. In 2019, Maréchal led the expansion of the RDR Corporate Accountability Index’s methodology to address human rights risks associated with tech companies’ business models, specifically the role that targeted advertising and algorithmic systems play in shaping internet users’ online experiences.
