API and the digital coordination in the European Context
summary
Study of 4,000+ terms of service uses NLP on 2,800 documents from a 2019 ProgrammableWeb snapshot to measure legal readiness for API ecosystems. Findings show GDPR cited 464 times, about 36–40% of contracts never mention APIs and over 75% use the word “API” five times or fewer, almost 80% lack clear definitions, and ~40% allow unilateral termination, creating legal uncertainty for data chains and interoperability.
