Regulators’ findings suggest social network breached Digital Services Act and could be fined 6% of global turnover
Elon Musk’s X has been warned by the EU it potentially faces large fines after regulators said its blue-tick system for users is deceptive and in breach of its landmark social media rules. Musk responded with “We look forward to a very public battle in court” late on Friday.
Announcing preliminary findings from an investigation, the European Commission said the platform did not comply with the Digital Services Act. X faces fines of up to 6% of its global turnover if the preliminary findings are confirmed.
