Follow Me to Unregulated Waters! - Are Major Online Platforms Violating the DSA’s Rules on Notice and Action?

Abstract

In this article, I will demonstrate how some major platforms are failing to ​properly ​implement the Digital Service Act's (DSA) rules on notice and action mechanisms. In my view, many platforms are ​unduly ​nudging potential notice-senders to submit weak, largely unregulated Community Standards flags. At the same time, platforms are actively deterring users from submitting (strong) notices regulated under the DSA.
