What the EU Is Doing
- Digital Services Act (DSA): Enacted to combat illegal content, disinformation, and algorithmic manipulation. It requires platforms to remove flagged content quickly, share data with regulators, and disclose moderation practices.
- Chat Control Proposal: A controversial plan to scan private messages for child abuse material, which critics say could undermine end-to-end encryption and violate privacy rights.
- AI Act and Data Governance: These laws aim to regulate AI and data use but also raise concerns about centralized control and compliance burdens.
