@EUCommission #funfact : What has been illegal offline has always been illegal online, there is nothing the #dsa changes 😉 It has always been about the competencies/expertise/willingness of the authorities to do their job, and this is not different with the DSA 😊 when the police or whoever does not enforce the laws, then the laws are just a paper tiger and red tape.

Hello @mk!
True, what is illegal offline is also illegal online.
The #DSA has made it easier to enforce our laws, and prosecute illegal activities online.
For example, by making it easier for users to report illegal content, and by obliging companies to be transparent about moderation decisions. The #DSA also obliges online marketplaces verify the identities of sellers, and ensure traceability.

We've preliminary found that TikTok is in breach of the DSA for its addictive design.

There are important indicators of compulsive use of the app that TikTok has disregarded in its risk assessment.

Key features of the addictive design:
🔹Infinite scroll
🔹Autoplay
🔹Push notifications
🔹Highly personalised recommender system

We consider that TikTok needs to change the basic design of its service.

TikTok can now exercise its right to examine and reply to the finding.

Online platforms have always held all the cards.

The DSA is changing that. One clear set of rules to protect people across the EU.

🔸 It’s about choice. The DSA requires the biggest platforms to offer a feed that isn't based on your personal data.
🔸 It’s about safety. What’s illegal offline should be illegal online.
🔸 It’s about freedom. In Europe, you have the right to challenge content moderation decisions taken by platforms.

An internet that works for people.
