Reddit, Roblox, and ChatGPT designated under EU's Digital Services Act
The European Commission has classified Reddit and Roblox as 'Very Large Online Platforms' and OpenAI’s ChatGPT as a 'Very Large Online Search Engine' under the Digital Services Act (DSA). This designation imposes strict obligations on these companies to enhance user safety, increase transparency, and reduce illegal content within the EU. The firms now have four months to comply with new regulatory requirements. The DSA aims to hold large online platforms accountable for their role in moderating harmful or unlawful content while ensuring greater oversight of digital services operating in Europe. These designations signal a broader effort by regulators to enforce stricter compliance from major tech companies, especially those that influence public discourse and user behavior at scale.
