Digital Services Act: "We're lagging a little bit behind the DMA when it comes to finding solutions, we have more text, and therefore we also need to have a couple of more shadows meetings," says @SchaldemoseMEP, rapporteur for the Digital Services Act during a hearing.
@SchaldemoseMEP Schaldemose quite unhappy about the Commission which "needs to be a little bit more cautious when it comes to going into so many details when they comment on our work. They have made their job, and now we're making our job."

-online marketplaces: strengthen due diligence obligations but let's not make marketplaces liable for products on their platforms
-scope: tackling very large platforms, not SMEs
