The law says that they're entitled the data for free? I honestly don't know, and the question is in good faith.

The law says that they're entitled the data for free? I honestly don't know, and the question is in good faith.
- diggan 2y agoJust one snippet from the relevant regulation: > This Regulation therefore provides a framework for compelling access to data from very large online platforms and very large online search engines to vetted researchers affiliated to a research organisation within the meaning of Article 2 of Directive (EU) 2019/790, which may include, for the purpose of this Regulation, civil society organisations that are conducting scientific research with the primary goal of supporting their public interest mission. https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:32022R2065 https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CEL... There is a bunch of more mentions of "research" too if you have the free-time to go through it. But in short; Yes, VLOPs (https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/dsa-vlops https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/dsa-vlops) need to provide data to researchers, for free.
