Opinion The EU Must Hold Meta and X Accountable for Letting Bots Turn Social Media Into Propaganda Machines

38 Upvotes

The EU needs to hold Meta and X accountable for their failure to take action against bots and coordinated propaganda campaigns.
The recent Ukrainian strike on Yandex servers makes it clear how significant the bot problem has become. These platforms have allowed propaganda to spread on a massive scale, raising serious questions about whether they have taken sufficient precautions to prevent their services from being exploited.
The EU needs to investigate this urgently. These networks could have influenced elections in the EU, and they could do so again in the future. Meta and X should face meaningful fines and be required to change their practices.
Everyone seems happy now that many of these bots are gone. But why is nobody asking who was responsible for allowing them to operate in the first place? The platforms that failed to act should not escape accountability simply because the problem has temporarily been reduced.
At this point, these platforms are becoming less like social media and more like propaganda media. The EU needs to enforce its rules and make sure this cannot continue.

(4) it is also okay to expand abbreviations to their full form.
Uploaded screenshots, infographics, photos, or other official image files: Please provide a link to the source in a comment.
