ChatGPT, Roblox could be included in DSA scope, EU Commission spokesperson says
The move follows both services passing 45 million monthly users in the bloc, triggering tougher scrutiny, transparency reporting and annual fees under EU rules.

- Within four months of official designation, platforms must establish 'risk mitigation' plans, file transparency reports, and pay annual supervisory fees to the European Commission for regulatory oversight.
- Companies face penalties of up to 6 per cent of annual global sales for breaches, with requirements targeting illegal content, electoral processes, and gender-based violence.
- The designation joins Meta Platforms and Elon Musk's X on the 'very large online platforms' list, though President Donald Trump's administration accused the EU of censoring American companies.
