American technology company Meta partially succeeded on Wednesday, June 3, in its dispute with the European Union over the regulation of its services under the Digital Markets Act. The General Court of the European Union ruled that Brussels must revoke the designation of the Marketplace platform as a so-called gatekeeper. svet.sme.sk ↗
However, Meta did not succeed in the same proceedings regarding its Messenger service. According to available information, it remains subject to European regulation under the regime for large digital platforms. The case is part of the European Union's broader pressure on major technology companies and their position in the digital market. SITA ↗
Amazon also remains among the companies under scrutiny. According to new information, the company failed to launch satellites for low-orbit internet connectivity on time, and the authority canceled its original deadline. Amazon is also expanding its activities in the United Kingdom, where it is preparing delivery within 30 minutes or less in Manchester and Birmingham, and plans to launch same-day delivery of fresh fruit and vegetables in London. dsl.sk ↗
Amazon is also changing its plans in the entertainment business. A new project from the world of the Stargate series will not go ahead, as the company has halted it. However, according to available information, the cancellation does not mean a definitive end to the entire brand. novinky.cz ↗
Further developments will depend on how Brussels adjusts its approach toward Marketplace, how the regulation of Messenger proceeds, and whether Amazon fulfills its further commitments on its technology and content projects. sector.sk ↗
