Digital Services Act In Greece

The rapid development of digital online technology and its high impact on various sectors, such as information, communication and transactions, are constantly posing important challenges for the EU legislator and national legal orders and authorities. The digital landscape is changing rapidly and is confronted with a variety of issues, such as transmission of illegal content, disinformation and harmful activities. In this constantly evolving digital environment, Internet Service Providers (hereinafter "ISPs") play a central role, mainly because of the mass distribution of digital content, which is carried out through their services. To address these challenges, the European Union adopted the Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 October 2022 on a Single Market for Digital Services and amending Directive 2000/31/EC (Digital Services Act – hereinafter "DSA") in October 2022.
