EU broadcasters push to expand Digital Markets Act to smart TVs and virtual assistants, citing gatekeeper concerns.
European broadcasters are urging the EU to extend the Digital Markets Act to smart TVs and virtual assistants, arguing that platforms like Android TV, Amazon Fire OS, and Samsung’s Tizen OS have gained excessive control over media distribution and should be designated as "gatekeepers."
They cite a 2025 study showing rising market shares and warn these tech giants may favor their own content and restrict competitors.
The group also highlights regulatory gaps around virtual assistants like Alexa and Siri, and OpenAI’s new AI feature, which operate without DMA obligations despite their growing influence.
The European Commission has not yet acted, and the companies involved did not respond.
