On 29 October 2025, the European Board for Digital Services (the Board) convened in Brussels for its 16th meeting.
With the entry into force of the Delegated Act on Data Access, qualified researchers can now apply for access to very large online platforms' (VLOPs) non-publicly accessible data: a key element for studying systemic risks in the online environment. This will also allow research on the mitigation measures in the European Union, overall contributing to the monitoring of the online environment and, therefore, to a safer online world.
