AI Summary:
Pedro Sánchez is launching a crusade against what he sees as the downsides of social media. The Spanish Prime Minister wants the European Union to put additional checks on Elon Musk’s X, TikTok, and Meta’s Facebook and Instagram. "I believe social media are now a common resource for humanity, like the oceans," he says. Sánchez will urge European officials to apply the Digital Services Act. The EU adopted the law in 2023 with the stated goal of keeping internet users safe online. But authorities on both sides of the Atlantic have made moves to investigate algorithms. At Davos, the prime minister challenged the involvement of social media platforms like Musk in politics. Meta has rolled back its content moderation, a move critics say will let misinformation and online abuse spread unchecked. Argentine President Javier Milei panned Sánchez's proposal.

Every time regular social media gets more invasive and more shit it makes the fediverse more appealing.
