BRUSSELS (Reuters) – Twitter cannot run away from its obligations even after quitting a voluntary EU code of practice to tackle disinformation, EU industry chief Thierry Breton warned the company late on Friday.<\/p>\n

Companies which signed up to the code are required to provide regular progress reports with data on how much advertising revenue they had averted from disinformation actors.<\/p>\n

They also have to provide information on the number or value of political advertisements accepted or rejected and instances of manipulative behaviours detected.<\/p>\n

“Twitter leaves EU voluntary code of practice against disinformation. But obligations remain. You can run but you can’t hide,” Breton said in a tweet.<\/p>\n

“Beyond voluntary commitments, fighting disinformation will be legal obligation under DSA as of August 25. Our teams will be ready for enforcement.”<\/p>\n

Since Twitter was acquired by billionaire Elon Musk for $44 billion last October, the company has cut thousands of jobs and made numerous changes.<\/p>\n

The Digital Services Act (DSA) obliges Twitter, Google (NASDAQ:), Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:), Microsoft Corp <\/span><\/span> (NASDAQ:), Alibaba <\/span><\/span> (NYSE:)’s AliExpress and five other large online platforms to do more to tackle illegal online content.<\/p>\n

Companies face fines of as much as 6% of their global turnover for violations.<\/p>\n

Twitter, which no longer has a public relations department, responded to an emailed request for comment with a poop emoji. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
