Digital Markets Act: Commission designates six gatekeepers

The European Commission has today designated, for the first time, six gatekeepers - Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, ByteDance, Meta, Microsoft - under the Digital Markets Act (DMA). In total, 22 core platform services provided by gatekeepers have been designated. The six gatekeepers will now have six months to ensure full compliance with the DMA obligations for each of their designated core platform services.

prevent users from un-installing any pre-installed software or app if they wish so

Good.

TikTok is truly a gatekeeper service on par with Facebook and Google. Whatever will people do without their tiktokthots?
