The EU has threatened to shut down Elon Musk’s Twitter unless the billionaire follows its stringent guidelines for content moderation, igniting a legal war over the survival of the social network.
According to persons with knowledge of the event, Thierry Breton, the EU commissioner in charge of carrying out the bloc’s digital regulations, issued the threat during a video chat with Musk on Wednesday.
Breton gave Musk a number of requirements to follow, including giving up the practice of restoring banned users in an “arbitrary” manner, combating misinformation “aggressively,” and agreeing to a comprehensive independent audit of the platform by the following year.
