Summary from the TLDR Marketing newsletter

The European Union has criticized X for having the worst ratio of disinformation to legitimate content among mainstream social networks. This assessment was made during the testing phase of a new methodology aimed at combating disinformation. X has faced criticism for facilitating the spread of Kremlin propaganda and removing labels denoting state-affiliated media accounts, leading to a surge in propaganda. In the past, toxicity and harmful disinformation on X encouraged an advertiser exodus.
