Elon Musk's Twitter lagged behind Google, Meta, Microsoft and TikTok in the fight against disinformation in the last six months, the European Commission said and urged the social media site to step up its efforts
and TikTok in the fight against disinformation in the last six months, the European Commission said on Thursday and urged Twitter to step up its efforts.
The companies on Thursday presented progress reports on compliance with a beefed up European Union code of practice on disinformation in the last six months. The reports included data on how much advertising revenue the companies had averted from disinformation actors, the number or value of political advertisements accepted or rejected and instances of manipulative behaviours detected.
The Commission last year strengthened the code by linking it to new online content rules known as the Digital Services Act which allows regulators to fine companies as much as 6% of their global turnover for breaches. Independent digital services coordinators enforce the act and decide on penalties.
