(Reclaim The Net) — The European Commission’s vice president of “Values and Transparency,” Věra Jourová, criticized Twitter for leaving the social media code of conduct on disinformation, saying the platform has chosen “confrontation.”

“We believe this is a mistake of Twitter. Twitter has chosen the hard way. They chose confrontation,” Jourová told reporters on Monday.

“This was noticed very much in the Commission and I know the code is voluntary, but make no mistake, by leaving the code Twitter has attracted a lot of attention and its actions and compliance with EU law will be scrutinized vigorously and urgently.”

She noted that Twitter will be forced to comply with the EU’s censorship law, the Digital Services Act (DSA), which comes into effect on August 25.
