If your product ranks or recommends content, the DSA treats it as a governance choice. Here’s what that means.
The DSA draws a line: once an algorithm ranks, recommends, or amplifies content, it is no longer "neutral." It becomes part of the editorial decision.
#The end of "just a platform"
Recommender systems are design choices. They shape what people see, and the DSA requires transparency about those choices.
#What the DSA expects
- 1Explain the main parameters of recommender systems.
- 2Offer meaningful user controls where required.
- 3Assess and mitigate systemic risks if you are large enough to be classified as a VLOP/VLOSE.
#What this means for AI teams
- Algorithmic amplification is a liability surface. - Transparency is now a product requirement, not a PR statement. - Documentation must be ready for regulators and procurement.
RegulaAI helps you map these requirements into an auditable report so you can ship AI features with confidence.
