The European Union (EU) has launched a formal process to assess whether Elon Musk's X social media platform violated the Digital Services Act. The investigation involves examining X in multiple areas, including risk management, ad transparency, content moderation and access to data for researchers.
The European Commission has announced that it has launched an investigation into alleged violations of X's documents, content removal and combating disinformation. Thierry Breton launched an investigation, stating that X violated its obligations of transparency and combating illegal content. There is also the issue of "deceptive design" in the investigation.
