“The European Union’s censors are outraged that Elon Musk’s social media platform, Twitter‑X, flouts their demands to gag users. So they’re gearing up to fine X more than a billion dollars. The EU will also be demanding ‘product changes.’ … All this is rationalized by a new EU law to compel social media platforms to police users. One would be hard put to find a clearer case of governmental censorship-by-delegation. It’s not even taking place behind closed doors, as was the case regarding the U.S. Government and Twitter before Mr. Musk bought the platform. These European censors brag about it.” (04/08/25)
