EU Intensifies Scrutiny of Amazon's DSA Compliance by July 26 Amid Broader Big Tech Crackdown

Jul 5, 2024, 11:20 AM

The European Union (EU) has intensified its scrutiny of Amazon's compliance with the Digital Services Act (DSA). The European Commission has requested Amazon to provide more information on the measures it has taken to comply with DSA obligations by July 26, focusing particularly on the transparency of its recommender algorithms and advertising practices. Amazon has responded, asserting that it has a strong foundation for compliance. This development is part of a broader EU crackdown on Big Tech, which also includes potential fines for Elon Musk's social platform, X, for non-compliance.
