SUMMARY

The EU has identified WhatsApp as a gatekeeper in the messaging industry and has given it a few months to enable interoperability with other apps.
The EU's Digital Markets Act aims to promote fair competition and give consumers more options for alternative services.
WhatsApp has already begun working on interoperability with other apps, potentially allowing smaller players like Signal to compete more fairly.
