Overview

Factorial experiment reveals that economic framing influences American views on data localization, highlighting key ethnocentric values.

Key Points

  • Attitudes toward data localization are negatively influenced by framing that highlights economic costs, increasing opposition.
  • A factorial experiment showed that Americans' responses are driven more by ethnocentrism than geopolitical factors.
  • Survey results indicate null effects when benefits to foreign digital sovereignty are emphasized, underscoring economic concerns.
  • Evaluation of data localization policies involves complex interplays between global digital trade and local citizens' sentiments.
