Musk has announced the possibility of civil war in Europe
American entrepreneur Elon Musk said on the X social network that Europe is approaching a civil war. The entrepreneur expressed this opinion, commenting on the videos of clashes between the country's citizens and migrants in Great Britain, as well as the statement of one of the social network users that "corrupt officials in the EU deserved the chaos they wanted." "Europe appears to be heading for civil war," Musk wrote.
The EU's digital rights chief has cautioned Elon Musk, the owner of X (formerly Twitter), about potential breaches of EU law due to war-related misinformation on the platform. The criticism includes concerns about graphic media, violent speech, and hateful conduct surrounding the Israel-Hamas conflict. Musk has been given a 24-hour ultimatum to comply with the EU's Digital Services Act. European Commissioner Thierry Breton expressed doubt about the platform's response and emphasized the need for timely and diligent removal of potentially illegal content.
Critics point out that misinformation is prevalent on the platform, exacerbated by workforce cuts after Musk's acquisition. The EU official also criticized Musk for inaction against Israel's actions and warned about the consequences of not addressing potential legal violations promptly. Despite X's claims of efforts to address the crisis, concerns persist about misinformation and Musk's impact on platform credibility and safety measures.
