Gerard de Graaf, a senior envoy for digital to the U.S., has been working with tech giants such as Meta, Google, Apple, and Amazon to help them prepare for the new Digital Services Act (DSA) legislation in Europe. The DSA, which goes into effect on Friday, aims to reduce the spread of illegal content online and increase accountability, with potential fines of up to 6% of annual revenue for non-compliance. De Graaf's role in Silicon Valley has helped foster a better relationship between the U.S. tech sector and the European Union (EU), with major leaders in tech showing signs of taking the DSA seriously.
