EU Takes Aim at Tech Giants with New Rules and Warnings.

TL;DR Summary
The European Union has warned Twitter that it is not making the digital information space any safer and free from Kremlin disinformation and malicious influence. The warning comes after research by Reset, a London-based non-profit, found that recent policy changes at Twitter have significantly amplified state-backed disinformation on the platform. The EU's Digital Services Act requires major platforms to take steps to mitigate systemic risks like disinformation, while breaches of the regime can attract penalties of up to 6% of global annual turnover.
