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.

All the media outlets say stupid shit like that lol. Extreme emotions is what drives viewership for all of them.
All I'm saying is I'd rather have it out in the open (so you can see the stupidity, just like you did with Fox) - rather than censored.
How would you know Fox corp is full of bad actors without seeing actions like that? Now you know not to trust them, and the people it's connected to.
I can tell that type of drivel is bullshit, but their vast viewership isn't making that distinction. It's leading to a huge group of America who don't live in reality, and it's proving to be dangerous physically and politically. So I still think if something is a verifiable lie, it should be called as such and the spreader of that lie should face ramifications.
Fair enough, but censorship won't fix the underlying issue that people aren't taking the time to think about what they're reading/watching. It might make it worse once it becomes information "they don't want you to see"
