X removes hundreds of Hamas-affiliated accounts since attack, CEO says::undefined
So he complied with the EU? What about being a free speech absolutist? You gonna let the bad gubment silence you now?
What a fucking beta
He best go kneel before his Saudi donors and apologize for failing them.
I was going to say same thing lol. Free speech absolutist my ass…
Like most people with money and a platform, he only has morals when he wants us to think he does.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Oct 12 (Reuters) - The X social media platform has removed hundreds of Hamas-affiliated accounts and taken action to remove or label tens of thousands of pieces of content since the militant group’s attack on Israel, its chief executive Linda Yaccarino said on Thursday.
The move came in response to European Union industry chief Thierry Breton’s 24 hour-ultimatum to Elon Musk to tackle the spread of disinformation on his X messaging platform since the Hamas assault to comply with new EU online content rules.
Breton, who said he had indications that X - formerly known as Twitter - was being used to disseminate illegal content and disinformation in the EU, said his team would analyse Yaccarino’s reply and decide on next steps.
The recently implemented Digital Services Act (DSA) requires large online platforms, including X and Meta’s (META.O) Facebook, to do more to remove illegal content and to take measures to tackle the risks to public security and civic discourse.
X has redistributed resources and refocused internal teams to address the rapidly evolving situation, Yaccarino said, without specifying the changes.
Breton issued a similar warning to Meta on Wednesday, giving the company 24 hours to inform him of measures taken to counter the spread of disinformation on its platforms following the attack on Israel.

The Taliban and Ali Khamenei are still on Twitter though, he’s still got some cleaning to do.
Broken clocks and all that.

The broken clock isn’t even right in this case. Literally only did it because they had to.
