Pinterest's CEO stated that the impact of the EU's actions was greater than anticipated, resulting in a Q4 guide that is $70 million light. This statement was made in a recent report, highlighting the challenges the company is facing in the European market.
The news matters for social commerce as it indicates the potential risks and challenges that social media platforms face in navigating regulatory environments, particularly in the EU.
