We have opened formal proceedings under the Digital Services Act to investigate how Snapchat exposes minors to grooming, recruitment for criminal purposes, and illegal products.

Key areas of investigation include:

🔹Grooming & recruitment of minors
🔹Age verification and access for under-13s
🔹Default privacy & safety settings
🔹Spread of illegal or age-restricted products
🔹Reporting of illegal content

We will now carry out an in-depth investigation.

@EUCommission it would be nice if you would consider actions against this platform that does NOT lead everybody to share there ID to continue using it but to directly democratise it!
@the_drifter @EUCommission 👆this. Dear EU Commission, these lines already make it look like you want them to get off the hook once they enforce facial scans of EU citizens. Maybe a fine of measly 100€ which Ireland will then refuse to even collect.
