In case you missed it... European gas price falls to pre-energy crisis level
Strong imports of liquefied natural gas, warm weather and demand reduction as a result of high prices in recent years have all helped keep gas stored in the EU’s underground storage facilities at historically high levels during this winter, putting pressure on prices. The price of Title Transfer Facility (TTF), the European benchmark, fell to as low as €22.53 per megawatt hour on Friday, the lowest since May 2021, on course for a third consecutive weekly decline.

The EU’s tough new moderation rules are about to cover a lot more of the internet
The European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA), a tough new piece of regulation that imposes new rules around content moderation and online advertising, is about to expand to cover huge swathes of the internet. Starting February 17th, the rules will apply to every online platform with users in the EU, in addition to the 19 Very Large Online Platforms (VLOPs) and Very Large Online Search Engines (VLOSEs) that have had to comply with the rules since last August. The DSA’s obligations include a ban on targeting underage users with ads based on their personal data, and targeting anyone based on sensitive data like sexual preferences or religious beliefs. When it comes to content moderation, sites will have to provide a reason to users when their content or account has been moderated, and offer them a way of complaining and challenging the decision. There are also rules around giving users the ability to flag illegal goods and services found on a platform. source : theverge
