The EU Commission recognizes efforts by the short video platform TikTok to comply with the Digital Services Act (DSA) – but intends to examine them more closely. „We have seen changes on TikTok’s platform in the past months, with new features being released with the aim to protect users and investments made in content moderation and trust and safety“, Thierry Breton, the EU’s internal market commissioner, said, after a video call with TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew. The DSA is an EU law that regulates liability and safety rules for digital platforms, services, and products, among other things.
