The EU's Digital Markets Act and Digital Services Act apply only to American tech companies, not to European firms.

Question

Accepted Answer

False. The EU's Digital Markets Act and Digital Services Act apply equally to all companies—American and European—that meet the size and user thresholds for "gatekeeper" or "very large online platform" designation. The laws do not discriminate based on country of origin. They apply to any company operating in the EU market that reaches the specified thresholds. European officials have repeatedly emphasized that these regulations apply to all large platforms operating in Europe, and companies must follow European law when operating in European markets, just as European companies must follow U.S. law when operating in America.
