Elon Musk Criticizes EU After $140 Million Fine on Social Media Platform X
Elon Musk has called for the abolition of the European Union following a $140 million fine imposed on his social media company, X, by the European Commission. The fine was issued due to alleged violations of the Digital Services Act, including deceptive design of the platform's 'blue checkmark' and lack of transparency in its advertising repository. Musk's comments have been echoed by U.S. officials, who view the fine as an attack on American tech companies. The European Commission's decision marks the first non-compliance ruling under the Digital Services Act, which aims to regulate online platforms.
