European Commission targeted consultation on the draft revised election guidelines under the DSA

The Hellenic Telecommunications and Post Commission (EETT) informs that the European Commission has launched a public consultation, open until 23 November 2026, on draft updated election guidelines under the Digital Services Act (DSA). The European Commission’s guidelines provide guidance to Very Large Online Platforms (VLOPs) and Very Large Online Search Engines (VLOSEs) on the measures they are expected to take to assess and mitigate systemic risks that may affect the integrity of electoral processes, while safeguarding fundamental rights, including freedom of expression and information. As part of the update, the Commission proposes measures aimed at more effectively preventing information manipulation risks, enhancing the security of recommender systems and adapting to the evolving AI landscape. The updated guidelines also seek to strengthen the protection of political candidates.

For further information and to participate in the consultation, interested parties may visit the relevant European Commission webpage.
