The penalties, expected to be announced this summer, could exceed $1 billion. In addition, the EU may demand major platform changes. If enforced, this would mark the first significant penalty under the DSA, which requires stricter content moderation from social media platforms.
Geopolitical Tensions Rise!
The fine could further strain EU-US relations, particularly as Elon Musk is closely linked to Donald Trump. EU officials are considering the broader political implications, including ongoing trade disputes and tensions over the war in Ukraine.
Despite the possibility of a settlement, Elon Musk has previously criticized EU regulations as censorship. If a deal is not reached, legal battles between X and EU authorities could escalate.
