EU Demands Musk's X Freeze Data as Algorithm Probe Widens
Jan 17, 2025, 12:21 PM
The European Union has expanded its investigation into Elon Musk's social media platform X, demanding that the company freeze and store relevant data and provide internal documents related to its algorithms, recommendation systems, and content moderation practices. The European Commission, which initiated the investigation in November 2023, has set a deadline of February 15 for X to comply with the requests. The investigation aims to assess X's compliance with the EU's Digital Services Act (DSA), amid concerns that the platform may be spreading misinformation, amplifying far-right content, and manipulating public debate in Europe. The move follows recent provocative statements by Musk and complaints from German politicians about the platform's algorithms boosting extremist content. The EU Commission is taking new technical measures to shed light on X's compliance with the DSA, highlighting the escalating tension between Brussels and major tech companies as they enforce stricter regulations on digital services.
