ChatGPT and Roblox Designated as Very Large Online Platforms in EU
OpenAI's ChatGPT and Roblox have been designated as 'very large online platforms' under the European Union’s digital content regulations. This classification subjects them to stricter scrutiny, including higher transparency requirements and more rigorous oversight of harmful content. The designation is based on user thresholds set by EU rules aimed at increasing accountability for major tech companies operating in Europe. The move aligns with broader regulatory efforts across the bloc to manage online risks while balancing innovation and free expression. Both platforms will now need to comply with additional obligations under the Digital Services Act (DSA), which could influence their operational strategies, compliance costs, and user policies.
