European Union’s Digital Services Act

The European Union's Digital Services Act (DSA) is a set of rules designed to make online platforms safer and more transparent. It requires digital services, especially big tech companies, to better control illegal content, misinformation, and harmful material. Platforms must take quicker action to remove problematic content and be more transparent about their moderation practices. The DSA also aims to protect users' fundamental rights, privacy, and freedom of expression, fostering trust in online services. Overall, it seeks to create a safer, more accountable digital environment for everyone in the EU.
