Italian Antitrust Authority Opens Probe into Suno

The Italian Competition Authority announced on October 6, 2026, that it is scrutinizing Suno’s contract terms for potential violations of Italy’s Consumer Code. The regulator is particularly concerned with clauses that allow the company to unilaterally modify services or pricing without justification and terminate user accounts without notice.

The investigation also highlights specific issues regarding copyright, noting that the license terms appear overly broad and insufficiently defined. Furthermore, the authority raised alarms over provisions that allegedly require users to waive moral rights and mandate binding individual arbitration in the United States, effectively limiting the ability of European consumers to pursue legal recourse.

Suno, a U.S.-based company, will now face a public consultation process as the AGCM reviews these terms. This move signals an increasing focus by European regulators on the power imbalance between generative AI platforms and their end users.
