The European Commission is investigating X’s handling of illegal content related to the Israel-Gaza war, marking the most significant action the bloc has taken to date under a new law governing social media companies. Thierry Breton, a European commissioner, announced Thursday that the European Union had sent a request for information to X, which was formerly called Twitter.
The request is the first step in an investigation into the company’s compliance with the Digital Services Act, and it comes after Breton pressed X owner Elon Musk this week on whether the platform was being used to disseminate “illegal content & disinformation” related to the Hamas attacks against Israel. “The #DSA is here to protect both freedom of expression & our democracies — including in times of crisis,” Breton wrote.
