I had this thought and I'm sure others here have as well. The people of France will be openly able to discuss the irregularities in their election now that Musk owns Twitter.
I hope this spreads and helps warm up the normies to our own election debacle.
The European Union is already on top of that. Kek.
Digital Services Act: Council and European Parliament provisional agreement for making the internet a safer space for European citizens
An important step has been taken today with the provisional political agreement reached on the Digital Services Act (DSA) between the Council and the European Parliament.
In terms of ambition, the nature of the actors regulated and the innovative aspect of the supervision involved, the DSA is a world first in the field of digital regulation. The DSA follows the principle that what is illegal offline must also be illegal online. It aims to protect the digital space against the spread of illegal content, and to ensure the protection of users’ fundamental rights.
Scope
The DSA will apply to all online intermediaries providing services in the EU. The obligations introduced are proportionate to the nature of the services concerned and tailored to the number of users, meaning that very large online platforms (VLOPs) and very large online search engines (VLOSEs) will be subject to more stringent requirements. Services with more than 45 million monthly active users in the European Union will fall into the category of very large online platforms and very large search engines.
To safeguard the development of start-ups and smaller enterprises in the internal market, micro and small enterprises with under 45 million monthly active users in the EU will be exempted from certain new obligations.

If I was Elon, I would report there are only 25 million monthly active Twitter users in the EU to skirt the regulations.
Hmm, they came to an agreement one day before the French election(initially proposed Dec 15th 2020)? I'm sure it's unrelated...
