The European Union has flagged Bluesky, a growing alternative to Twitter, for non-compliance with its Digital Services Act (DSA). According to Reuters, Bluesky has failed to meet the DSA’s transparency requirements,

Bluesky said it’s working to comply with European Union rules after the bloc accused the fast-growing social media platform of flouting its digital regulations.

Bluesky is in breach of European Union regulations that stipulate all online platforms must regularly publish user numbers.

The spokesperson also added that since Bluesky is not currently classified as a “Very Large Platform” under the EU’s Digital Services Act, the commission has not yet reached out to the company. The EC has, instead, contacted EU governments to check “if they can find any trace of Bluesky.”

The European Commission, the EU's executive body, had contacted the 27 national governments to check "if they can find any trace of Bluesky," including locating an EU-based office.
