As the measures made public by the DSA do not explicitly raise the question of the sovereignty of public media over their content in social-digital ecosystems, we are therefore still far from the notion of must-carry on platforms, defended by the EBU.

The adoption of the DSA contributes to staging an opposition between the inaction of the United States in terms of regulating digital giants and the initiative strength of the European Union. Indeed, in the United States, while regulators have initiated antitrust proceedings against Google and Meta , no comprehensive federal law addresses the power of technology companies. Americans, above all, want to find a balance between the need for competition , to which they are attached, and the awareness that digital giants are their champions in the global competition against China.
