Summary
A German court ruled that Elon Musk’s X must immediately provide researchers with data on politically related content ahead of Germany’s Feb. 23 election.
The lawsuit, filed by Democracy Reporting International and the Society for Civil Rights, accused X of blocking efforts to track election interference.
The ruling enforces the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA), requiring major platforms to grant researcher access. It also orders X to pay legal costs and imposes a €6,000 procedural fine.
The decision sets a legal precedent, but it remains unclear if X will appeal.
Wow that’s fucked. The German government is mad that a private company won’t help them spy on their population. Europe is rapidly descending into barbarism.
Wtf arr you talking about
No, nevermind, I don’t care what your weird-ass spin is
Their comment history is literally just Fox News. Covers the full gamut from trans athletes to Hunter Biden conspiracies. I didn’t know these people existed on Lemmy
What is your definition of barbarism?
