EU Court Rejects TikTok's Challenge to Antitrust Rules, Faces Probe Over Minors' Risks

TikTok's request to delay being designated as a "gatekeeper" under the EU's Digital Markets Act has been rejected by the EU court, meaning it will have to comply with the strict antitrust rules that go into effect in March. The court found that ByteDance failed to demonstrate the urgency required for the request. This decision comes as TikTok faces a separate EU probe into its content moderation rules for minors under the Digital Services Act.
