I’m going to apply a big fine for the platform X / day
The edition indicates that the alleged fine for the « X » platform could further exacerbate the tension between the EU and the US, as Mask is one of the closest associates of US President Donald Trump.
The fine is expected to be announced this summer.
Alongside the fine, EU regulators will demand « X » for the « X » platform. What exactly changes are meant is not clarified.
According to the newspaper’s interlocutors, the EU authorities are currently evaluating how much a fine to apply the mask to the social network.
According to one source, the fine could exceed a billion dollar equivalent. Thus, in his view, regulators hope to discourage other companies from violating norms.
The edition of the edition said that the EU and « X » could still reach an agreement if the social network agreed to change its policy.
The investigation into « X » began in 2023.
The European Commission (EC) announced in the summer of 2024 that the social network had violated several articles of the EU’s Digital Service Act.
According to the EC explanation, « X » is understood by users who use so -called verified accounts with a tick on a blue background. Anyone interested may require such an account, and therefore users may have doubts about the authenticity of the profiles and the reliability of the content published therein.
In addition, the EC pointed out that « X » did not comply with the transparency of advertisers. As well as providing researchers access to their data so that they can assess the prevalence of misinformation.
