Elon Musk’s recent political activities on the platform X are under scrutiny by the European Union, particularly regarding his support for the AfD in Germany and the implications for disinformation laws. The EU acknowledges Musk’s right to express his views but emphasizes that platforms must prevent manipulation during public discussions and elections. Ongoing investigations could lead to substantial fines for X if found violating digital service regulations. Experts express skepticism about whether legal measures alone will be enough to address the challenges posed by Musk’s involvement in European politics.
