Thierry Breton, the EU’s digital chief, issued a warning to Elon Musk regarding his platform X (formerly Twitter), accusing it of spreading “illegal content and disinformation” following the recent Hamas attack against Israel. The letter demanded a response within 24 hours and urged Musk to contact relevant law enforcement authorities. Breton cited concerns about the dissemination of illegal content and reminded Musk of EU laws regulating online content moderation, especially regarding violent and terrorist content. Musk responded on X, inviting Breton to list the violations and asserting an open-source and transparent policy, while Brussels considers potential penalties.
