Today, the Commission has preliminarily found TikTok in breach of the DSA, for its addictive design.
This includes features such as infinite scroll, autoplay, push notifications, and its highly personalised recommender system.
TikTok seems to fail to implement reasonable, proportionate and effective measures to mitigate risks stemming from its addictive design.
At this stage, the Commission considers that TikTok needs to change the basic design of its service.

@HennaVirkkunen Indeed, there are lots of things that are wrong with TikTok. Luckily, the Fediverse has an alternative to TikTok called Loops, that is gaining pace, and is welcoming new users.

@HennaVirkkunen Thank you! Now please ban lobbying by megacorps! The EU should not be for sale!

@HennaVirkkunen Nice, whatโs gonna happen now?
@hermes @HennaVirkkunen "TikTok now has the possibility to exercise its right to defence. It may examine the documents in the Commission's investigation files and reply in writing to the Commission's preliminary findings. In parallel, the European Board for Digital Services will be consulted.
If the Commission's views are ultimately confirmed, the Commission may issue a non-compliance decision, which can trigger a fine proportionate to the nature, gravity, recurrence and duration of the infringement and reach up to but not more than 6% of the total worldwide annual turnover of the provider."

@HennaVirkkunen , platforms like this should share whoโs buying the data it collects.

@HennaVirkkunen WTF Infinte scrolling is now demonized? WTF is your problem? Where do you even live? The moon? Get your head out your ass.
People like you are the issue in our societies.
Too rich and pampered searching for validation for their existence by doing meaningless, destructive policing no one asked for.
You are the problem.
You want censorship and to spy on everyone, except yourself and your class.
Disgusting.
The level of self-righteous pseudoactivism is unbelievable.
Get your fucking head straight. -

@HennaVirkkunen This is a fabulous breakthrough. No longer the emperor's new clothes ... expect gigantic backlash as precious profits - made on the back of the addictiveness - will reduce. Heaven forbid!

@HennaVirkkunen infinite scrolling probably isn't the biggest issue with that "platform". Just ban it, but please do it for real reasons ๐

@HennaVirkkunen
thank you! Now on to demolishing the international trafficking of personal data, otherwise known as Real-Time Bidding, which we have known for years is completely void of a legal basis -
