Preliminary investigations by the European Union show that Meta Platforms and TikTok have violated the EU Digital Services Act by failing to provide independent researchers with convenient access to data. The European Commission pointed out that Meta's mechanisms have set up unnecessary processes that affect the tagging and removal of illegal content.
