EU Signals Twitter Must Improve Content Moderation to Comply With New Digital Laws

Twitter needs to do more to moderate content to comply with the EU's Digital Services Act according to EU Commissioner Thierry Breton.
Breton oversaw a review of Twitter's content moderation systems at its headquarters.
The Digital Services Act will require companies to address hate speech, disinformation and other harmful content on their platforms.
The law goes into effect August 25 for large companies and violations can result in fines up to 6% of global revenue or bans from operating in the EU.
Twitter says it is taking the exercise seriously and will focus on key areas to meet the law's requirements.
