EU Commission demands TikTok changes
Social network violates DSA due to 'addictive' interface
The European Commission has demanded that TikTok change its 'addictive' interface, arguing that the platform violates provisions of the European Digital Services Act (DSA). Among the violations are infinite content scrolling, automatic playback, push notifications, and a highly personalized recommendation system. TikTok's technological approach to keeping users engaged falls under the strict requirements of the DSA, aimed at increasing transparency and safety of digital services.
Context
The Digital Services Act was adopted by the EU in 2022 to establish uniform standards for safety, transparency, and accountability for digital platforms. TikTok, as one of the world's largest services, has come under close regulatory scrutiny.
The European Commission has urged TikTok to revise its design, going beyond EU digital rules, particularly features that could be addictive.
