EU takes action against Elon Musk’s X over disinformation | BBC News
The European Union has formally announced it suspects X, previously known as Twitter, of breaching its rules in areas including countering illegal content and disinformation.
Digital commissioner Thierry Breton set out the alleged infringements in a post on the social media platform.
He said X, which is owned by Elon Musk, was also suspected of breaching its obligations on transparency.
X said it was “co-operating with the regulatory process”.

Prime Minister Andy Burnham has told the BBC that PC Andrew Harper’s killers will remain behind bars as he announces changes to the early release scheme aimed at easing prison overcrowding.
In an exclusive interview with BBC Breakfast, Burnham said anyone convicted of manslaughter will be excluded from changes brought in under the Sentencing Act, which would have made the killers eligible for early release.
Burnham said extra prison spaces would be created by deporting “hundreds” of foreign prisoners and releasing some inmates serving indefinite sentences.

Twenty-seven people have been killed and almost 400 evacuated after a Russian strike hit a warehouse near Kyiv, triggering a fire and a series of explosions.
Regional governor Tymur Tkachenko said a further 42 people, including four children, were injured after the Russian drone strike in the Bucha district.
An investigation has been launched into whether ammunition was being stored at the site, where search and rescue operations were ongoing early on Saturday.
Russia’s Ministry of Defence said in a statement that its forces had targeted “an ammunition depot” in the Kyiv region village of Myla, which stores “components and launch boosters for FP-1/FP-2 long-range unmanned aerial vehicles”.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed his condolences to the families of the victims of the strike, saying that more than 300 emergency respondents had been deployed to the strike area.

Can they tell exactly what the misinformation is? Is the misinformation that IDF is blocking aid into Gaza so people world almost starve to death? Or is the misinformation that IDF shut down fuel and electricity to hospitals that caused the hospital to turn into a morgue and led to mass deaths of the babies there as well?

Firstly who decides what is this disinformation this is literally like something out of a George Orwell novel!! It amazes me Elon Musk gives a platform where finally each side has a voice free speech and he gets essentially crucified for it, now the EU coming after X!! Whereas TikTok ruins the minds of a generation literally a Chinese government application! and no governments want to do anything about it!!

It's not easy for Elon to sell cars in China. Elon seems to have inherited Kissinger's career, buying Twitter is probably also part of Elon and Mr. Xi's plan, one of the ways to spread conspiracy theories and fake news, Mr. Trump coming to power is another plan. Unexpectedly perfect, because he does not understand politics and follows his emotions, so it can easily cause internal unrest.

Elon should just pull the plug on the EU. I wonder how long the populace would be fine with no X. Something tells me they’d start to feel a lot of pressure to reverse course. Then again, maybe not. Perhaps the Europeans subconsciously want a real life 1984 experience? Let me have it

I can’t wait until people start sueing government officials for infringement on their rights. All they want is too push their agenda on the people. The people that outnumber them 5000 to 1. Start looking into politicians businesses. Anything wrong they do sue them. I’m sure there’s quite a bit of wrong doings going on. They can only push people so far. I mean the WHO lied to everyone. It’s on paper released to public yet nobody does anything.

Thierry Breton, the chief propaganda minister of the EU parliament, a conglomerate of obedient bootlickers for the shareholders and magnates, sues the last uncensored media platform for disinformation, while a war wages they lie about, while crisis after crisis goes unattended and the civilians get cheated out of their money, even their living spaces with legions of "asylum seekers". Absolute scum.

Let me bring you another breaking news: today the new Polish left-liberal government, which emerged from the last elections and which has the broad support of EU officials, tried to take over state television by force in an illegal manner and in violation of Polish law. Television executives are being unlawfully dismissed and employees are being denied access to editorial offices. Some news television programmes are blocked, including broadcasts of TVP World. Members of the conservative democratic opposition are on the television premises, who, having the support of the President and the assembled protesting Poles, want to bring the new Polish authorities to their senses and respect the legal order in Poland.

X is a social media platform, not a news agency. The public should be allowed to be wrong.
When your child draws a picture and tells you it's Santa, will you be referring them to the EU and demanding that they destroy the image on the grounds of a factual inaccuracy?

The problem is that we depend on American tech giants for social media, every other superpower has its own social media but the EU who uses the USA’s ones. Rather then trying to bend X to fit both the USA and EU it would be smarter to develop our own platform.

How dare the EU protect it's consumers from unscrupulous, deceptive business practices, amirite? Lets hope X pulls out of the EU entirely, it won't be missed.
