"Today, we are taking further steps to shed light on the compliance of X's recommender systems with the obligations under the DSA," noted Henna Virkkunen, emphasizing the EU's commitment to ensuring fair online environments.
The Commission has expressed concern over potential deceptive design practices and transparency issues with X's recommender systems, assessing whether it fulfills the Digital Services Act obligations.
With the ongoing probe into X initiated in December 2023, regulators have intensified scrutiny after the company's owner supported controversial political parties, raising alarms about platform influence during elections.
The European Commission demands that X provide critical documents by February 15, enforcing a retention order that compels the company to retain algorithm-related internal documents through 2025.
