This involves forcing WhatsApp to work with other messengers, right?

No that’s the Digital Markets Act they where designed in conjunction but the DSA is introduced first, don’t know the timeline when the DMA will follow (hopefully soon and not be watered down in the meantime)

It’s already applicable, but this means that now the countrys have like 2 years if i’m not mistaken to actually enforce it. So we will the the effects in 2025.

Found this timeline:

https://www.europarl.europa.eu/thinktank/en/document/EPRS_ATA(2022)739226

https://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes/ATAG/2022/739226/EPRS-AaG-739226-DMA-Application-timeline-FINAL.pdf

So sometime during 2024 it will be in effect (applicable since may 2023, but after that 6 month for companies to make a case weather or not they are gatekeepers, 2 month for the eu to answer and tell the companies the verdict if they are a gatekeeper or not, and after that 6 month for the gatekeepers to comply, so if the companies strech the process out it will be here in juli 2024)

All social networks and messengers need to be open protocol. EU do your thing.
