Preventing addiction requires continuous human contact – which was absent. The path to recovery from addiction requires continuous human contact – which is unclear where it will come from.

@EUCommission Leibe EU Kommision. Könnt ihr bitte was dagegen unternehmen das die Wirtschaft Druck auf die Politik ausüben. So was tut man nicht, das ist Nötigung .

@sloanlance @EUCommission

Autoplay? Where? Also there is no algorithm on mastodon. You are expected to curate your own experience.

@albertcardona @EUCommission We can still look up from our broken screens and find there’s a world out there, with people in it.

Having that epiphany would not be the apocalypse it is made out to be.

@EUCommission

Simply excellent conclusion… rolling out these sociological experiments untested for profit should simply be stopped. Rules and regulations is what we need.

@EUCommission @hans 120 million for Twitter is like 10 cents for anyone in these comments. Fines for violations like these should come in entire pieces of yearly profits

@energisch_ @EUCommission Not sure if its the DSA, but one or more of these EU laws gets more and more severe over time. If they don’t improve they’ll be investigated again and fined again, but with a higher amount.

@EUCommission I applaud further scrutiny of TikTok, but the basis is iffy. https://ec.social-network.europa.eu/public/local also implements infinite scroll

@EUCommission dont forget about #youtube Shorts and #instagram Reels…

@EUCommission No shit. This has always been the plan for short-form video, as well as the shift with Social Media sites since '15. They are designed to addict, unlike the earlier forms, where you just had a profile and used it as a messaging service.

@EUCommission YouTube Shorts shpuld be the next target.

I hate opening one interesting short video, ended wasting 30 minutes of mindless scrolling.

@EUCommission
Very good to see our EU taking action! Glad to be part of it.

A giant leap for the EU, one small step for mankind.

TikToxic

@EUCommission

@js @hyevans @EUCommission Yes, Yes, Yes, and Yes.

@EUCommission this is stupid. Adults have enough stress in their lives. If scrolling infinitely allows them to enjoy their day I say go for it.

@EUCommission When will the EU countries unite and promote European software and services? Now all alternatives are national and fragmented across Europe.

@EUCommission everyone here seems to be ‘yay’ but honestly this is completely ridiculous regulatory overreach. We don’t need some EU office to step in on matters like ‘notifications’ and ‘infinite scroll’. This is not how regulation should work.

@EUCommission are you on @loops already? It's the fediverse alternative to TikTok!
