Breaking News: Elon Musk's X (formerly Twitter) Rejects EU's Censorship Immunity Deal!
In a shocking move, X turned down the European Commission's offer to avoid fines for censoring user speech without transparency. While other platforms accepted the deal, X chose to stand firm, facing increased regulatory pressure.
Elon Musk accuses the EU Commission of proposing an unlawful secret agreement, suggesting silent censorship without user knowledge to avoid fines.
The EU Commission alleges X breached several principles of the Digital Services Act (DSA), including deceptive practices, lack of ad transparency, and restricted data access for researchers.
X faces criticism for its verified account system, advertisement repository, and terms of service, which hinder researchers' work.
The EU Commission has issued preliminary findings, and X can respond in writing to the investigation file.
Stay tuned for updates on this regulatory battle!
