Giovedì, le autorità europee hanno accusato TikTok di non rispettare le regole sui contenuti digitali. L'accusa è legata alla mancanza di chiarezza riguardo alla pubblicità mostrata agli utenti della piattaforma.

The EU Commission, representing 27 countries, stated in early findings of its investigation that TikTok's ad library doesn't meet the Digital Services Act (DSA) standards.

The Commission stated that ad databases are essential for researchers to spot fraudulent ads, hybrid threat campaigns, coordinated information operations, and fake ads, "especially during elections."

Il DSA è un insieme di regole esteso che ha lo scopo di rendere più sicure le piattaforme social e proteggere gli utenti da pericoli, come la diffusione di notizie false durante le elezioni. Le piattaforme devono essere chiare riguardo alla pubblicità online, spiegando agli utenti perché vedono un certo annuncio e chi lo ha finanziato.

The Commission stated TikTok doesn't give enough details about what its ads show, who they're aimed at, and who pays for them. They added that the ad database doesn't let you properly search using this information, which "makes the tool less useful."

TikTok has stated they are reviewing the Commission's findings and are still dedicated to following the rules of the Digital Services Act.

"The company stated that while they support the aims of the regulation and are working to improve how transparent their ads are, they disagree with some of the Commission's interpretations, pointing out that the guidance is based on initial findings rather than clear, public guidelines."

Henna Virkkunen, a top official in the technology and security commission, said that problems with the advertising database stop them from fully checking the risks of ad targeting systems.

Virkkunen ha affermato che la trasparenza nella pubblicità online, riguardo a chi paga e come il pubblico viene scelto, è fondamentale per proteggere l'interesse di tutti. Ha aggiunto che, sia per difendere l'onestà delle elezioni, sia per proteggere la salute delle persone o i consumatori da pubblicità ingannevoli, i cittadini devono sapere chi finanzia i messaggi che vedono.

TikTok can now respond before the Commission makes its final decision, which could include a fine of up to 6% of the company's yearly global income.

TikTok è sotto inchiesta da parte dell'UE per possibili mancanze nella gestione dei rischi legati alle elezioni presidenziali in Romania, che nel 2023 hanno subito contestazioni e accuse di interferenze straniere.
