EU approve draft regulations on social media giants

UpnAtom writes: The draft Digital Services Act gives researchers access to algorithms and data. It makes social media companies more responsible for content. It also sets up an oversight committee to build upon these basics.

Other than the US Government, the EU is the only organisation with the commercial power to force these US corporations to comply. The EU Parliament voted so strongly to approve the draft Act that there's little doubt such a law will be enacted this year.
