Important that we can #trust what we see #online . Today, we have opened proceedings against @meta as we suspect that their online moderation on @facebok and @instagram is insufficient. It lacks transparency of #ads and content moderation. More👇

If we act early on, we can avoid that the #AI market gets dominated by a few large players, like we saw happening with #digital #platforms . We need vibrant #competition in AI, now. Good meeting w/ @MistralAI today.

This is a step in the right direction. But it's not enough. What we expect from #TikTok is to properly limit the risks of #addiction + enhance security of #minors . Formal proceedings under the #DSA continue as we speak.

Statement on TikTok Lite: "TikTok always seeks to engage constructively with the EU Commission and other regulators. We are therefore voluntarily suspending the rewards functions in TikTok Lite while we address the concerns that they have raised."

Det er en tragedie. 400 års historie og et københavnsk vartegn i flammer. Det gør ondt at følge billederne af #B ørsen, der brænder, her fra Bruxelles. Mange tanker til redningsfolkene og til @DanskErhverv

Le feu ravage la Bourse de Copenhague. Solidarité avec nos amis danois, cinq ans après Notre-Dame avalée par les flammes. Notre patrimoine 🇪🇺 est un trésor. Grâce au génie de nos artisans et à la volonté du Président, Notre-Dame renaîtra. Je le souhaite de tout ♥️ à la Bourse.

As someone who listens to a lot of talks, one of my favorite barometers of talk quality is to assess how well-chosen the words, phrases, analogies, etc are. Many talks are not so special when assessed in this way. @vestager 's is different: an exceptional talk.
