About this tag
The Digital Services Act (DSA) is a European Union regulation imposing strict transparency, safety, and risk-management obligations on Very Large Online Platforms (VLOPs). Recent threads discuss the General Court confirming Amazon's marketplace as a VLOP, triggering DSA compliance. The European Commission has also opened DSA investigations into Snapchat, YouTube, Apple, and Google Play regarding child safety measures. Additionally, Microsoft unbundled Teams from Office in Europe to address competition concerns, though this move relates more to antitrust rules than the DSA itself. These developments highlight the DSA's growing impact on major tech companies operating in the EU.
