   ▸ AIAI: What changed Written by AI from the official text — check the source

   The resolution now includes a definition of cyberbullying and expands the scope to cover AI-enabled abuse and gender-based violence. It adds calls for harmonised criminal law measures, including penalties and a possible EU-wide definition, and for stronger enforcement of the DSA. It introduces new provisions on AI, online gaming, and funding for civil society, while removing references to specific national laws and trade negotiations. The remaining changes are wording adjustments and renumbering of paragraphs.
