48 HOURS THAT SHOOK THE WORLD
In just two days, the digital and political world experienced a shockwave that exposed the growing tension between powerful tech giants and government regulators.
On December 5, the European Union fined X €120 million, marking the first-ever penalty under the Digital Services Act (DSA). This historic move sent a clear message: even the most influential platforms are no longer above European law. The EU claimed the fine was linked to failures in content moderation, transparency, and user protection, setting a global precedent for how social media companies will be regulated in the future.
Then came December 7 — and the situation escalated dramatically. The owner of X publicly called for the European Union to be abolished, stating, “I mean it. Not kidding.” The post went viral almost instantly, racking up 8 million views and 194,000 likes in record time. What started as a legal penalty turned into a political firestorm.
This wasn’t just about a fine. It became a symbol of the growing war between government control and digital free speech. Supporters praised the boldness. Critics warned of chaos. And the world watched in real time.
These 48 hours didn’t just make headlines — they changed the global conversation about power, speech, and the future of the internet.
