EU is investigating X (formerly known as twitter) over illegal content

[TheButcher]

The EU sure likes to investigate social media companies and pass laws related to the online websites.

The trouble is there is not much the EU can do to enforce this Digital Services Act (DSA). They cant exactly ban twitter as the uproar from the public would be enormous.

Musk says he wants complete freedom of speech on twitter but there HAS to be a line somewhere. Otherwise what is to stop (for example) neo-nazis posting race hate stuff or terrorist groups like Isis posting recruitment videos ???? He's already lost a LOT of advertising revenue because they dont want to be associated with extreme posts like that.

Complete freedom of speech is a nice idea but if you allow ANYBODY to say ANYTHING then its going to get out of hand very quickly

Fines all they want out of it.Why they always go investigate tech companies.

That is one component the other is they want to control the mews narrative in my opinion. You either say what they want you to say or they will fine you.
