A Primer on Cross-Border Speech Regulation and the EU’s Digital Services Act

EU digital chief Henna Virkkunen said the Commission doesn’t “rule out” postponing parts of the AI Act, citing the need for standards before rules apply. Czechia called for a 2-year delay, Germany expressed openness, & Spain warned against deregulation.

Children should not have access to pornographic content.

Today, the Commission opens DSA probes into Pornhub, Stripchat, XNXX & Xvideos. They should:

- prevent kids from accessing their services.
- assess and mitigate risks

Minor protection online remains our top priority.
