The European Union has launched an investigation into whether TikTok may have broken EU laws concerning the protection of minors, advertising transparency, and data sharing.

On Feb. 19, the European Commission—the EU’s executive branch—announced that it has begun formal investigative proceedings into whether TikTok is in breach of the EU’s 2022 Digital Services Act (DSA).
