A coalition of major European broadcasters led by ACT has asked the European Commission to designate smart TV operating systems and virtual assistants as gatekeepers under the Digital Markets Act, Reuters reported on Monday. The groups singled out Google, Amazon, Apple and Samsung for growing market power, saying designation would trigger stricter oversight and contestability obligations if adopted.
