From August 25, the European Union introduces enhanced control over the activities of 19 online platforms, including Twitter, YouTube and TikTok, as well as Instagram and Facebook social networks banned in Russia, follows from a statement published on the European Commission website.

⠀
The list included Alibaba AliExpress, Amazon Store, Apple AppStore, Booking.com, Facebook, Google Play, Google Maps, Google Shopping, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Snapchat, TikTok, Twitter, Wikipedia, YouTube and Zalando. At the same time, search engines Bing and Google Search will fall under increased control from the EU.
