Microsoft

The sub-section on Microsoft states that the company may only face obligations regarding uninstalling of software. However, there are other examples of cases where they might need to act. For example, if one searches 'firefox' on Bing, as of December 2021 an ad promoting Microsoft Edge appears as the first result stating that 'There's no need to install other browsers'. Displaying this as the first result regardless of actual page ranking seems to fall under Article 6 section d: '[a gatekeeper shall] refrain from treating more favourably in ranking services and products offered by the gatekeeper itself or by any third party belonging to the same undertaking compared to similar services or products of third party and apply fair and non-discriminatory conditions to such ranking'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.213.131.229 (talk) 13:50, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Act"

The EU doesn't do "Acts". That term is only used for the legislative instruments of (some) member state governments. EU law is in the form of Directives and Regulations. This is a proposed regulation. Hairy Dude (talk) 14:09, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nevertheless both the Council and Parliament have taken to calling it the Digital Markets Act per the Commission, and so has everyone else, so WP:COMMONNAME is fitting. The text itself, after referring to the "the draft legislative act", indeed goes on to adopt "this regulation" and there's nary a mention of any Digital Markets Act. Which is reflected in the lede. int21h (talk · contribs · email) 01:08, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Implementation date not before 2023

I read on some articles that it could come into force as soon as october 2022, can someone check? 94.38.113.226 (talk) 11:20, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Signature

I've seen people slow walking it before, but both Parliament and Council decided this by formal vote between 5 and 18 July (2 years ago). When is the regulation going to be signed and sent to the Publications Office? int21h (talk · contribs · email) 01:22, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The Digital Services Act's article could also use some help! James Tamim (talk) 22:30, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

New gatekeepers

The European Comission has added Booking.com as a gatekeeper and started investigating X.com (https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_24_2561). The article should be updated to reflect that. They have also designated Apple in the context of iPadOS as a gatekeeper (https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_24_2363).

Para in 4.3 "Sectors concerned (Core Platforms Services)" is tautological

My bolds:

"On February 13, 2024, the European Commission announced their decision that Bing, Edge, Microsoft Advertising and iMessage don't qualify as gatekeeper services. […] Despite the lack of detail provided by the European Commission on their decision, multiple outlets speculated that the decision was based on the services not meeting the threshold necessary to be classified as a gatekeeper service."

It seems to me "don't qualify" and "not meeting the threshold necessary" are the same thing. Quilt Phase (talk) 23:40, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
