Posted By TheNewsCommenter: From Twitchy.com: “EU reportedly threatens Twitter ban unless Elon Musk cracks down on what EU calls disinfo and hate speech”. Below is an excerpt from the article.
It’s definitely not just American media and Democratic politicians who are weirdly terrified of Elon Musk taking ownership of Twitter. The paranoia has spread to other parts of the globe as well.
Elon Musk told by the EU that Twitter will be banned from Europe unless they censor more disinformation, be more careful in bringing back banned accounts, and undergo an audit.

Here's a US Senator named Josh Hawley. He's very concerned about Apple going along with Chinese censorship demands, even if it doesn't directly affect the speech of Americans. Will he as a defender of free speech and US sovereignty take a stand on this? https://t.co/VpTtgWOzEx

"Twitter risks being in violation of the Digital Services Act, which requires social media platforms to remove hate speech and bans ads targeting people based on political beliefs."

Elon can just block the platform in the EU and let’s see what those petty tyrants do

Everyone in the EU about to get really accustomed to VPNs, Elon should sell his own
