Signed into law by the European Parliament and Council on 14 September 2022, entering into force 1 November 2022 and applicable from 2 May 2023, the Digital Markets Act aims to ensure a level playing field for all digital companies regardless of size by regulating large online platforms designated as gatekeepers. Gatekeeper status is triggered by objective thresholds of EEA turnover or market capitalization combined with large numbers of monthly active users and business users. The first gatekeepers, Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, ByteDance, Meta and Microsoft, were designated on 6 September 2023, facing obligations including bans on combining personal data across services without consent and mandated interoperability.
