Investigation over alleged disinformation on X

Social media firms have seen a surge in misinformation about the conflict between Israel and Hamas, including doctored images and mislabelled videos. X, formerly known as Twitter, said it had removed hundreds of Hamas-affiliated accounts from the platform. The EU is investigating Elon Musk’s X over the possible spread of terrorist and violent content, and hate speech, after Hamas’ attack on Israel. The investigation, the first under the EU’s new tech rules, will also look at the way complaints are handled. X has until 18 October to provide details on how its crisis response protocol is activated and functions, and until 31 October on other issues. Do you think that European Union is unhappy with the mode of operation of X ?
