All journalists should get off of it today. Right now. Not tomorrow but now.

Melon Husk will probably treat that as a win. It's confirmation that what he is doing is working and he's aggregating the right (not as in "correct") people on his platform.

I liked to follow certain niche content creators on Twitter but the platform has become unusable since Elon took over. Genuinely sad.

Can someone give me an example of when a country warned a company about their behavior/practices that actually made a change? Because to me, it seems the companies (Amazon/Twitter etc.) do whatever they want regardless of what country doesn’t like it.

Musk has already left millions of dollars in advertiser funds on the table in the name of "free speech". He's not going to comply.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The EU has issued a warning to Elon Musk to comply with sweeping new laws on fake news and Russian propaganda, after X – formerly known as Twitter – was found to have the highest ratio of disinformation posts of all large social media platforms.

Facebook was the second worst offender, according to the first ever report recording posts that will be deemed illegal across the EU under the Digital Services Act (DSA), which came into force in August.

Nevertheless, Facebook and other tech giants, including Google, TikTok and Microsoft, have signed up to the code of practice the EU drew up to ensure they could get ready in time to operate within the confines of the new laws.

The 200-page report is an account of the work the large platforms have done in the first six months of 2023 to prepare for compliance with the new law and lifts the lid on the behind-the-scenes efforts made by Facebook and others to crack down on Russian propaganda, hate speech and other disinformation.

“The Russian state has engaged in the war of ideas to pollute our information space with half truth and lies to create a false image that democracy is no better than autocracy,” said Jourová.

YouTube, owned by Google, told the EU it had removed more than “400 channels involved in coordinated influence operations linked to the Russian-state sponsored Internet Research Agency”.
