TL;DR

EU industry chief Thierry Breton warned Twitter that it cannot escape its obligations to tackle disinformation even after leaving a voluntary EU code of practice. The Digital Services Act (DSA) will make fighting disinformation a legal obligation from August 25, and companies face fines of up to 6% of their global turnover for violations. Twitter, along with other large online platforms, will be required to do more to tackle illegal online content.
