I'm so over this Big Ad Blowback
I mean, come on, $140M fine? That's just ridiculous! X is basically saying "hey EU, we're not going to let you exploit our ad tool and artificially inflate engagement"
And honestly, who can blame them? I've seen some shady stuff go down on these platforms, but X at least has the guts to call out the commission for trying to get away with it
And yeah, Elon's tweet was a low blow, but c'mon, that's just part of the game
. What really gets me is how the EU body is trying to make this out like X is being "deceptive" and all that jazz
It's just a bunch of corporate politics, if you ask me
