The findings of the paper suggest that the political power of platforms may have been overstated. Future research should pay closer attention to the interaction between platforms' (infra)structural power and their lobbying strategies. You can find the full paper here:

Focusing on the French and German debates, I find that...
... the techlash does indeed limit platform power: in France, the public image of Big Tech was much more critical than in Germany, providing a less fertile bonding surface for the frames pushed by the platforms.
