European Commission Advances Implementation of the Digital Services Act (DSA)
Dposphere
The European Commission continues enforcement actions under the European Union Digital Services Act (DSA), focusing on platform transparency, risk assessments, and protection of fundamental rights online.
The Commission has begun investigating major online platforms for systemic risks, including algorithmic transparency, content moderation, and illegal content mitigation. Under the DSA, companies must perform annual risk assessments, implement mitigation measures, and provide independent audits.
For organizations processing user data, this development intersects with GDPR compliance, transparency obligations, and governance documentation. Firms must align internal data governance frameworks with DSA requirements, particularly regarding automated decision-making systems.
