EU Fines X $140M for DSA Breach; Rubio: 'Attack on American People'

  • EU fined Elon Musk's X $140 million (120 million euros) for violating the Digital Services Act (DSA).
  • US Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemned the fine as an "attack on all American tech platforms and the American people."
  • The EU defended the penalty, stating it enforces accountability for harmful practices, not censorship, and cited X's deceptive blue-check design, insufficient ad transparency, and refusal to provide data as violations.

Why It Matters: EU fine on X signals stricter global tech regulation and US-EU tensions.
