Musk expresses his willingness to comply with the EU's Digital Services Act, which levies hefty fines on companies if they do not control illegal content.

Elon Musk has assured the European Commission that Twitter will abide by tough European rules on illegal online content policing now that the social network has passed under his ownership, European Union sources said on Monday.

The self-described free speech absolutist agreed to hold a meeting with Breton, a former French finance minister, in the coming weeks, two EU officials familiar with the discussions told Reuters. Companies will face fines of up to 6% of annual global turnover for breaches of Digital Services Act.
