EU sets out its new Twitter rules

Published

on

A clash may be brewing between Twitter’s new owner Elon Musk and the European Union

EU officials warning that the site could be blocked, if it doesn’t make a commitment to moderate its content.

According to the Financial Times, Breton said Twitter needed to make a number of changes to meet the DSA’s requirements.

It wants Twitter to “aggressively” tackle disinformation, submit to an audit and provide clear criteria about which users are at risk of being banned.

The EU also wants Twitter to carefully consider how it lifts bans in the future.

Breton posted a full “DSA Checklist,” via his Mastodon account, containing the rules he said Twitter will need to abide by.

Failing to comply with the DSA can result in an EU-wide ban or fines of up to 6 percent of global turnover when it comes into force, which Politico reports may not happen until early 2024.
