The European Commission (EC) accused Elon Musk\u2019s X of violating multiple rules under the Digital Services Act (DSA), following a seven-month long investigation<\/a> into the social media platform.<\/p>\n

In a statement, EC outlined three \u201cmain grievances\u201d in the way X operates as an online platform, as it singled out the app\u2019s \u201cblue checkmark\u201d policy, non-transparent advertising, and practices which render its public data inaccessible to researchers.<\/p>\n

The authority explained X\u2019s interface for blue checkmark or account verification \u201cdoes not correspond to industry practice\u201d since \u201canyone can obtain to such verified status”, resulting in users being deceived about the authenticity of accounts and content they interact with.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is evidence of motivated malicious actors abusing the \u2018verified account\u2019 to deceive users,” EC added.<\/p>\n

Also commenting, commissioner for internal market Thierry Breton said: \u201cBack in the day, blue checks used to mean trustworthy sources of information. Now with X, our preliminary view is that they deceive users and infringe the DSA.\u201d<\/p>\n

EC further argued X does not comply with the \u201crequired transparency\u201d on online ads, pointing to the app\u2019s design which \u201cdoes not allow for the required supervision and research into emerging risks brought about by the distribution of advertising online\u201d.<\/p>\n

X also attempted to \u201cdissuade\u201d researchers from gathering public information about the company by prohibiting access to the data, instead directing them to an API and \u201cdisproportionately high fees\u201d, EC explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn our view, X does not comply with the DSA in key transparency areas, by using dark patterns and thus misleading users, by failing to provide an adequate ad repository, and by blocking access to data for researchers,\u201d said EC EVP for competition policy Margrethe Vestager.<\/p>\n

EC had informed the company of its findings and gave it time to exercise its rights of defence. The probe could lead to a fine of up to 6 per cent of X\u2019s global turnover rate.<\/p>\n

The European regulator also opened investigations into Meta Platforms, TikTok and AliExpress.<\/p>\n
