TikTok on Thursday joined Meta in appealing against the 'gatekeeper' status under the Digital Markets Act (DMA), an EU law that brings in tougher rules for tech companies and makes it easier for users to move between competing services.
'Our appeal is based on the belief that our designation risks undermining the DMA's own stated goal by protecting actual gatekeepers from newer competitors like TikTok,' it said. 'Far from being a gatekeeper, our platform, which has been operating in Europe for just over five years, is arguably the most capable challenger to more entrenched platform businesses.'
The video-sharing app said it does not meet the law's threshold for revenues generated in the European Economic Area of â¬7.5 billion per annum.
