EU sets new online rules for Google, Meta to curb illegal content - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

The Digital Services Act is the second prong of EU antitrust chief Margrethe Vestager’s strategy to rein in Alphabet unit Google, Meta and other US tech giants.

“We have a deal on the DSA: The Digital Services Act will make sure that what is illegal offline is also seen and dealt with as illegal online – not as a slogan, as reality,” Vestager said in a tweet.“Google, Meta and other large online platforms will have to act to better protect their users. Europe has made clear that they cannot act as independent digital islands,” she said in a statement.

Under the DSA, the companies face fines up to 6% of their global turnover for violating the rules while repeated breaches could see them banned from doing business in the EU. Dark patterns, which are tactics that mislead people into giving personal data to companies online, will also be prohibited.
