The European Commission said it will “make sure” it receives money owed by Elon Musk’s X after the company was fined €120 million for failing to meet transparency rules.
The Commission on Friday said X has breached transparency and deceptive design obligations under the EU’s platforms regulation, the Digital Services Act, and issued the €120 million penalty.
The decision set off a cascade of accusations of censorship from U.S. officials, Musk and his supporters, with some suggesting the company should refuse to pay the fine.
Yeah, the sheer insanity here is that $120M is like, losing a comparative 12¢ to him.
Wikipedia puts the worthless cur’s “worth” at ~470B.
I’m no mathematician but…
470,000,000,000
−120,000,000
=469,880,000,000
OoOOOoo way to go. You go make sure he pays that huuuge fine. I’m sure he’ll lose sleep over this one!
Fine him 12% of his net worth and THAT would at least be an actual penalty.
