EU court adviser backs gatekeeper label for TikTok
Original: Setback for TikTok as EU court adviser backs gatekeeper label
TikTok has suffered a setback in the EU after a court adviser backed the European Commission's decision to designate the app as a gatekeeper under the Digital Markets Act. The opinion, reported by Reuters, supports stricter regulatory obligations for the platform. A final court ruling on TikTok's challenge is still pending.
Why now: The court adviser's opinion strengthens EU regulation of TikTok and signals it is likely to face heightened obligations under the Digital Markets Act.
