미국 빅 테크 기업, "영국 떠나겠다"

2023.08.14

Regulation in the UK is among the most stringent of the 27 countries in the EU. For tech companies, in particular, sanctions from UK regulators can be a huge overshadowing factor. This fall, the UK's Online Safety Bill will be passed. Aimed at protecting children, the bill sets out strict rules for policing social media content, and companies that fail to comply could face stiff fines and jail time. This is expected to hit tech companies based on messaging apps like WhatsApp and Signal hard.

WhatsApp says it would rather be blocked in the UK than undermine its encrypted-messaging system, if required to do so under the Online Safety Bill. Its head, Will Cathcart, said it would refuse to comply if asked to weaken the privacy of encrypted messages. The app Signal previously said it could stop providing services in the UK if the bill required it to scan messages.

왓츠앱·EU, '사용자 메시지' 정리 동의

It’s taken rather longer than a month for Meta-owned WhatsApp to commit to address complaints swirling around how it imposes terms of service on users but the European Commission has just announced that the messaging platform has agreed to improve how it communicates to users and presents future ToS updates. Early in 2021, WhatsApp triggered a major user backlash after it pushed out an aggressive and confusingly worded update to its ToS that required users to accept the update in order to continue using the platform without making it clear what exactly was changing. The episode caused widespread confusion and drove some users to ditch the platform altogether — with rivals like Signal and Telegram reporting a surge in adoption.
