The European Commission's communications department has asked all EU executive services to stop running adverts on X...over 'widespread concerns relating to the spread of disinformation.'
X has been under growing scrutiny in Europe as a result of the bloc's new Digital Services Act (DSA).
EU services can still use X to communicate through the Commission's many profile pages. But the communications department is calling time on paid-for advertising on the platform. Spinant said the department 'will consider using alternative platforms (e.g. LinkedIn, Instagram or Facebook) or digital advertising on websites, as appropriate. We are also exploring new platforms to diversify our social media presence.'
