    See how Breton never mentions pro-Hamas content, but the article acts as if he took a side.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    European Commissioner Thierry Breton warned Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg Wednesday that failing to remove pro-Hamas content across his platforms could put the company in violation of new EU moderation regulations.

    In a letter to Zuckerberg Wednesday, Breton urged Meta “to be very vigilant” in removing illegal terrorist content and hate speech amid the ongoing war in Israel.

    Breton said that the European Commission had seen “a surge of illegal content and disinformation being disseminated in the EU,” potentially putting social media platforms in violation of its Digital Services Act, or DSA.

    The DSA went into effect in August, making tech giants like Google, Meta, and Amazon liable for content that’s illegal in the EU being posted on their platforms.

    If any of these large tech companies fail to remove this content, they could be fined upwards of 6 percent of their annual revenue.

    “Needless to say, I also expect you to be in contact with the relevant law enforcement authorities and Europol, and ensure that you respond promptly to any requests.”


    The original article contains 359 words, the summary contains 171 words. Saved 52%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
