Oh okay, faggot.
Twitter has agreed to comply with tough new EU laws on fake news, Russian propaganda and online crime after a team of officials from the European Commission entered its headquarters to stress test its capacity to operate legally in Europe.
The move came just weeks after Elon Musk, Twitter’s owner, quit the bloc’s voluntary code of practice on disinformation.
In the first exercise of its kind, EU officials were allowed into the company’s headquarters on Thursday to carry out a mock exercise with Twitter staff to test its controls on Russian propaganda, fake news and criminal activity including child sexual exploitation.
Thierry Breton, the commissioner responsible for enforcement of the new Digital Services Act, welcomed the fact the company voluntarily agreed to the test.

Breton, on a two-day visit to Silicon Valley, said Twitter still had a long way to go to get ready. “Twitter is taking the exercise seriously and has identified the key areas on which it needs to focus to comply with the DSA. With two months to go before the new EU regulation kicks in, work needs to continue for the systems to be in place and work effectively and quickly.
“I told Elon Musk and Linda Yaccarino [Twitter’s chief executive] that Twitter should be very diligent in preparing to tackle illegal content in the European Union.
“Fighting disinformation, including pro-Russian propaganda, will also be a focus area in particular as we are entering a period of elections in Europe.”
By the way: Andrew Anglin and Nick Fuentes are still banned from Twitter for no reason.
Probably, others as well, but I don’t know who they are or what they did.
But Anglin and Fuentes are banned just for being themselves. For no other reason.
Also, the kikesucker Alex Jones is still banned, although it’s believed that he was sucking so much Jewish cock that kosher semen was getting blown all over his face and onto his keyboard, jamming the switches, so he was not able to file an appeal.
Also, he has been banned because he said the Jews the freemason illuminati jesuits did Sandy Hook, and no one actually died. That is to say: at least Elon gave a reason why he was banned.
Nick and Andrew have filed appeals, and been rejected without explanation.
Elon on Twitter allowing free speech forever or…
“As much as the Governments of those countries allow by law” 🤔
