As of today, Apple, Alphabet, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft and ByteDance, the six gatekeepers designated by the Commission in September 2023, have to fully comply with all obligations in the Digital Markets Act (DMA).
The DMA aims to make digital markets in the EU more contestable and fairer. It establishes new rules for 10 defined core platform services, such as search engines, online marketplaces, app stores, online advertising and messaging, and gives new rights to European businesses and end-users.
I love EU.
Well they do some things right but you know they are also pretty dystopian as well, trying to ban encryption so they can have total surveillance over their citizens like china and what not. Just as bad as the usa in that regard!
Sorta gross.
On the contrary, they are the first to enshrine it as a basic human right. Chat control got shut down so hard not even the EU legislature can pick it up again easily.
Yes I’m glad chat control was stopped, but it just goes to show there are wannabe authoritarians in everyone’s government.
There are wannabe authoritarians everywhere, one of the functions of government is to stop them. Which kinda sorta works in the EU if you don’t look too far east.
And even their recent ideas of putting PhotoDNA and other encryption mitigating stuff everywhere?
When someone literally named Comradesexual@lemmygrad.ml praises the EU…
Brb, gonna go ice skating in Hell!
?
I’ve seen a few lemmygrad users that aren’t tankies, but by far the majority are extremely opposed to the EU, NATO, etc. Nothing against you personally, just thought it was funny.
I am anti NATO.
Thank you for being honest and not flaming, I can certainly appreciate that perspective. I must be jaded from seeing people equate the EU and NATO so often.
I am very chill. Admittedly, I haven’t seen the behaviour you describe, but I am aware of the anti-EU views some have. I am extremely pro EU and wish for it to eventually expand into a pan AfroEuroAsian union, but even with just EU expansion, or even without expansion, they desperately need to address the current voting system within the EU as an organization, AND they desperately need to give vote to Europeans. I appreciate many things they do, but I frequently feel like they’d benefit from having europeans voting on certain issues.
See, I can get behind this 100%! Real, actual egalitarian society, and not constant isolationist/factionalist/nationalistic bickering.
