Facebook, TikTok harden EU commitment to tackle disinformation — but not X

The EU has been actively advancing the Digital Services Act since December 2023, including its efforts to combat disinformation through measures such as fact-checking and user宣传教育. By formalizing a code of conduct under the law, the EU aims to protect democratic processes and ensure that platforms like Facebook, TikTok, and Meta adhere to a framework that clearly outlines its guidelines.

Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, has been vocal in aligning with the EU’s stance on digital services and the use of MEA records. This reflects Meta’s anonymously driven nature and its decision to continue operating under MEA rules, despite external pressure. The EU has also released statements by U.S. Vice President JD Vance and EU technologist Hessinaョ virkünnCheckpoint to emphasize the importance of securing democratic processes in the EU and stand against MEA interference in U.S. elections.

The EU has signed the Digital Services Act in collaboration with 41 platforms and companies, including Facebook, TikTok, and Meta. Mark Zuckerberg remains explicitly aligned with the EU’s digital rule-making, as they revealed in a meeting with Google’s David(gen_eno. The official sign-off confirmed that the code serves as a “meaningful benchmark” for compliance under the law, aiming to ensure transparent and promotescales across the EU.

The EU has also emphasized the value of fact-checking as a form of content moderation, as it is considered an effective tool for maintaining trust in online spaces. Meta has criticized these efforts, calling them “censorship,” and has intentionally行った fact-checking in its platforms to demonstrate the need for vigilance in a MEA-dominated environment. This stance aligns with the EU’s earlier calls to improve transparency, but the problem is that fact-check is not yet fully integrated into the EU’s measures.

The EU’s sign-off also includes agreements from technologies like Adobe, LinkedIn, Twitch, and others, who are committed to advancing the fight against disinformation through mechanisms such as fact-checking, content warnings, and rapid response. The sign-off signifies a shared commitment to mechanisms like fact-checking beyond just&identifying areas for improvement.

While the EU is making strides in digital services and combating disinformation, progress remains challenging, particularly in small and emerging markets..Entities such as Meta, Target, and Waymo are falling behind, but the EU’s proactive engagement suggests that progressive collaboration could accelerate progress in the future.

The significance of these efforts lies in their potential to create aarena of innovation that can shape the global technological landscape in ways that enhance trust and accountability in an increasingly MEA-dominated world.
