Rubio lashed out at the European Commission over the fine for Musk's social network

Rubio reacted sharply to the European Commission's fine, calling it "an attack by foreign governments on all American technology platforms and the American people."

The days of Americans being censored on the internet are over.

EU regulators fined X €120 million for violating EU rules on online content.

Violations include the misleading design of the "blue tick", the lack of transparency of the advertising repository, and the failure to provide researchers with access to public data.

Commenting on reports of the EU's plans to fine X, US Vice President JD Vance said that "the EU should support free speech, not attack American companies over garbage."
