The European Commission said today that TikTok is facing a fine because its addictive features, including infinite scroll, autoplay, push notifications, and personalized recommendation systems, are breaching the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA).
large fineslap on the hand
Not in this case. DSA is % based fine on global annual turnover. So up to 6% out of $186 billion (using 2025 data) is more than a slap.
It makes it sound a lot when you put it like that.
If instead I say that 6% of €1000 is €60 then it doesn’t sound so much despite being in the same proportion.
