The European Union’s regulatory body has fined Elon Musk’s social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), €120 million for breaching new EU digital laws. The ruling is the first major enforcement action taken under the Digital Services Act (DSA), specifically citing X’s failure to meet transparency obligations related to illegal scams, fake advertisements, and coordinated campaigns during political elections. The fine signals the EU’s firm resolve to regulate large tech platforms operating within its member states.
