It doesn't apply to phishing. Its very clear its about emergencies, ergo threats about violence, bombs and such. Phishing is definitely not a "threat to the life or safety of persons" as it only poses a threat to property, ergo money.
-----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: Anne Mitchell via mailop <mailop@mailop.org> Skickat: den 23 april 2022 22:38 Till: Michael Orlitzky via mailop <mailop@mailop.org> Ämne: [mailop] Interesting passage from the new EU Digital Services Act "Where an online platform becomes aware of any information giving rise to a suspicion that a serious criminal offence involving a threat to the life or safety of persons has taken place, is taking place or is likely to take place, it shall promptly inform the law enforcement or judicial authorities of the Member State or Member States concerned of its suspicion and provide all relevant information available." Hrrrm... I wonder whether the online platforms of which we are ware who know full well that phishing is happening on their platform have promptly informed law enforcement. Note that the DSA explicitly states that it applies to entities outside of the EU as well as within the EU.
