The European Union has confirmed the names of over a dozen platforms that will face the strictest level of regulation under its recently rebooted and expanded ecommerce rules, aka the Digital Services Act (DSA).
The list is a mix of familiar digital services, from social media apps to search engines and app stores — with no real surprises.
The lion’s share of regulated platforms are developed by U.S. based for-profit firms, with a few international (mostly European) players in the mix, and one non-profit (the online encyclopedia Wikipedia).
The full list of 19 platforms which are being designated in this first wave is as follows:
- Alibaba AliExpress
- Amazon Store
- Apple AppStore
- Bing
- Booking.com
- Google Play
- Google Maps
- Google Search
- Google Shopping
- Snapchat
- TikTok
- Wikipedia
- YouTube
- Zalando
