New Digital Services Act A Practitioner's Guide

"The Digital Services Act (DSA) is the successor to the e-Commerce Directive and forms the European "Constitution for Online Services". The new Act includes obligations for providers of digital services to protect business and private users in order to ensure that activities that are illegal offline are also prohibited online. This Practitioner's Guide provides clarity at an early stage, both for companies offering online services and for business users of digital services. It clarifies in a comprehensible and legally sound manner: which providers (intermediary and hosting services, online platforms and search engines) are affected under which conditions, which obligations (such as transparency, reporting and risk management obligations) which providers must comply with, which innovations apply to liability on the internet; how business users can take action against providers of digital services and what the consequences of breaches of law are" -- From publisher's website.
