What changed that caused all this? They can do this now because of the passage of the DMA but was there some specific event that triggered the creation and passage of that?
I’m surprised that so little happened for such a long time in terms of regulation (EU or US) and then suddenly it feels like the EU really jumped in to the fray.
- asadotzler 3y agoThe DMA came into full effect this month. The EC looked at the big companies targeted by the DMA and the state of their compliance, had questions about several of those companies' compliance and so opened investigations.

Not really, but the DSA package has been in the works for quite a while now even though it seems very recent. The DMA may have only really come into effect May last year and the compliance deadline was only three weeks ago, but it was first proposed by the Commission all the way back in 2020, and building off proposals from the previous Commission. In a sense, they've been working on it since GDPR in 2016.
