Meta and the European Union (EU) agreed to a stress test in July on EU online content rules, after EU industry chief Thierry Breton demanded that the social media platform immediately act on Meta content aimed at children.

“Productive discussion with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg in Menlo Park on EU Digital Rules: DSA, DMA and AI Act,” Breton said in a tweet, adding that 1,000 Meta employees are working on the Digital Services Act (DSA).

Breton had said earlier in June that Meta would have to show what measures it planned to take to comply with the European Union’s online content rules known as the Digital Services Act (DSA) after August 25 or face severe penalties.

The DSA prohibits certain types of targeted ads on online platforms such as those intended for children or when they use special categories of personal data, such as race, political opinions, and sexual orientation.

Meta did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
