Comment on this story: Elon Musk wasted no time in making changes at Twitter after acquiring the company, firing its top trust and safety executive. However, his free-wheeling plans for the site have been met with resistance from the European Union, which is enforcing its strict social media law, the Digital Services Act. European Commissioner Thierry Breton is now conducting a “stress test” at Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters to determine the company’s compliance with the law. This comes as the European Union emerges as a major player in regulating Big Tech, while the U.S. lags behind in passing new laws. Europe’s focus on American tech giants is evident in Breton’s itinerary, which includes meetings with top executives from Meta, Nvidia, and OpenAI to discuss AI development. As enforcement of the Digital Services Act and Digital Markets Act draws closer, the European Union’s role as Silicon Valley’s regulator faces a crucial test.
