  • Musk's direct political agitation isn't limited to the U.S. and U.K. He recently came out in favor of Germany's far-right Alternative for Germany, leading Chancellor Olaf Scholz to declare "don't feed the trolls"; French President Emmanuel Macron today called him out as the leader of a "new international reactionary movement."

The article from Politico's Digital Future Daily discusses Elon Musk's plans to expand his social media platform, X (formerly known as Twitter), into Europe, focusing on a new approach to content moderation and governance. Musk aims to introduce a "citizen's court" system where users can appeal content moderation decisions, reflecting his vision of "freedom of speech, not freedom of reach." This move comes amidst ongoing scrutiny from European regulators regarding compliance with the Digital Services Act (DSA), which requires platforms to manage harmful content effectively. The article highlights the tension between Musk's free speech advocacy and the regulatory demands for content control, suggesting that his governance model might face significant challenges in aligning with European laws. Additionally, it notes the broader implications for how social media platforms might evolve in terms of user rights and platform responsibilities in the digital space.
