X’s blue checkmarks are deceptive, rules EU ‘Verified accounts’ lack authenticity and are being abused by malicious actors in violation of the EU’s DSA.

  Remember when Eli Lily lost billions because an account with a blue check mark pretending to be them said they were giving insulin away for free?

  System is working as intended. Finally a government is not only calling it out but actually has a law to force the issue.

    While the EU definitely does have its problems and nothing is perfect, I think that for the most part it’s really been a force for good in this world, although things haven’t been looking too good recently (not just the extreme right winning in the Parliament elections, but the shit eg France is doing to migrant boats etc etc). Also it’s kept the Germans, French and the Brits from killing each other and/or the rest of us which has been terrific.

    Let’s see how long it’ll survive what with the current nationalist resurgence and all. Living in the EU now sort of feels like I’d better enjoy things while they last

      The extreme right gained some seats, but they are very far from winning an election. They actually underperformed expectations and are actively losing ground eg. in France or the NL. Even Orbán’s regime seems to have found a challenger.

      The fight is not over yet, but this election has been very far from a far right win.
