French authorities and Europol have launched a significant raid on Elon Musk’s X offices in Paris following a cyber-crime investigation into the platform’s algorithm. The Paris prosecutor is scrutinising how social media content recommendations function amidst growing legal pressure on Big Tech within the European Union. This report analyses the geopolitical consequences of the raid and the legal complaints targeting X’s operational transparency in France. Jonathan MS Pearce explores the role of European regulators in policing digital content and what this escalation means for the future of Musk’s social media empire.
Musk whines about attacks on free speech, yet has never criticized these countries that have banned X completely.
China, Iran, Russia, North Korea, Myanmar, Turkmenistan, Venezuela, and Pakistan.
BTW Musk. Seeing that the US have started to arrest journalists, you have been very quiet.
Ivan Muskovy comes from a fascistic family and is an exponent of the nazi salute.
He runs a pro-putler/pro-trump site. His acquisition of twitter almost certainly led to the election of Trump. He provides a huge platform for one of the most dangerous putler shills in the world: Fucker Karlsonov.
Yet in 2022 he was pro-Ukraine and helped them massively with Starlink. Embarrassingly he revealed his man-child character by challenging putler to a ridiculous martial arts fight : winner gets Ukraine.
But he quickly flipped, went full putler and sabotaged at least one major military operation that had been planned by Kyiv.
He is an anti-semite and frequently makes demeaning statements about Zel.
But just recently he has helped Ukraine again; by blocking Starlink from the putinaZis.
Hard to know what to make of this guy. It’s clearly not good to make an enemy of such a rich nutter though and Solovyov’s latest threats to him might make him pro-Ukraine again, but who knows?
