Radical EU bureaucrats are weaponizing the Digital Services Act (DSA) to crack down on free speech that doesn’t align with government-approved narratives on social media, including Elon Musk’s ‘free speech’ platform X. The EU’s attack on free speech online has possibly entered a new chapter, with Musk’s entire business empire potentially in the crosshairs of fines.
Bloomberg reported that EU bureaucrats are mulling over how to calculate fines against X for failing to combat what the bloc deems ‘illegal content or disinformation’ on the social media platform (this spat between EU-Musk has been ongoing for about a year). In other words, EU officials are livid with Musk because X does not censor and/or shadow-ban folks based on political views. So, these bureaucrats must potentially resort to lawfare against their political enemies.
