Abstract: The evolution of digital instruments completely changed the European perspective on legislation, resulting in a shifted perception of the e-Commerce Directive, considered insufficient to tackle and further protect digital markets and to provide a level playing field for the platform economy.
Systematic approaches for regulating digital markets began shaping EU strategy, 2024 marks the year when full enforcement of a set designed to cover challenges of digital markets or, more specifically, digital platforms is expected. The dual role of DSA and DMA and the interplay between these and other European texts that are already in force are addressed in the article.
