The European Commission in October sent a first request for information on measures taken to counter the spread of terrorist and violent content, and a second last month on measures to protect minors.<\/p>\n

\u201cInformation is also requested about Instagram\u2019s recommender system and amplification of potentially harmful content,\u201d the European Commission said in a statement on its latest query.<\/p>\n

The request for information was done under the EU\u2019s Digital Services Act (DSA), new tech rules requiring Big Tech to do more to police illegal and harmful content on their platforms.<\/p>\n

Failure to comply with such requests can lead to a formal probe and even fines. Chinese conglomerate ByteDance\u2019s TikTok and Elon Musk\u2019s X have also received similar requests for information.<\/p>\n
