Meta and Snap Receives Formal EU Requests on Child Safety Protocol
Release Date:
Meta and Snap are the latest tech firms to get formal requests for information from the European Commission about the steps they’re taking to safeguard minors on their platforms in line with requirements set out in the bloc’s Digital Services Act. The Commission sent similar RFIs to TikTok and YouTube also focused on child protection. The safety of minors has quickly emerged as a priority area for the EU’s DSA oversight. The Commission designated 19 so-called very large online platforms and very large online search engines back in April, with Meta’s social networks Facebook and Instagram and Snap’s messaging app Snapchat among them.
