EU expands DSA reach to ChatGPT, Reddit and Roblox, boosting platform duties

Brussels classified OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Reddit and Roblox as Very Large Online Platforms under the EU’s Digital Services Act, adding obligations to remove illegal content and safeguard minors’ privacy and security. With over 45 million EU users each, they face tighter scrutiny and could be fined up to 6% of global revenue if noncompliant by the end of December. The move broadens the DSA to generative AI and comes alongside AI Act enforcement.

Europe’s balancing act: building tech sovereignty without strangling access

The FT View argues Europe must pursue tech sovereignty carefully: nurture European tech capabilities and control over critical tech through measures like a Cloud and AI Development Act and revised Chips Act, while avoiding measures that cut off access to leading US providers or invite retaliation. The plan would include sovereignty risk assessments, preferring EU-made software/hardware for the most sensitive contracts (level 4), and boosting cross-border investment and a unified single market to help European firms scale. In short, Europe should create the conditions for European champions without protectionist baggage that could undermine competitiveness or provoke a pushback from the US.

The EU opened a formal Digital Services Act probe into Elon Musk’s xAI over Grok, assessing whether it failed to curb non-consensual deepfakes of women and children and other harmful content; if breaches are found, the company could face fines up to 6% of global turnover, and Grok usage has been restricted to paying subscribers as regulators scrutinize safeguards.
