The European Commission fined X €120M for breaching basic transparency rules — from misleading “verification” to an unusable ads library and blocking researchers from accessing public data. Musk frames this as a free-speech issue, but the case shows a refusal to provide accountability, not a defense of expression.
Strong ad transparency, as required by the DSA, is essential to stop scams in real time, trace who was targeted, and hold platforms accountable.
