The social media platform could be forced to hand over percentage of global turnover if it does

The power struggle between the EU and Elon Musk’s newly re-invened Twitter has reached a new low.

The Financial Times reports the billionaire has been told to hire more human moderators and fact-checkers to review posts.

Twitter need to be fully compliant with Digital Services Act by September — or they could be on the hook for six per cent of its global turnover.
