TL;DR Summary

Elon Musk is reportedly considering removing Twitter, or X, from Europe in response to increased scrutiny and compliance investigations by the European Commission. Musk is frustrated with having to comply with the Digital Services Act, which requires platforms to effectively moderate and remove harmful content. Twitter could face fines if found in violation of the DSA. Musk has previously suggested limiting Twitter's operations to the US and has already closed most of the company's global offices. Europe accounts for about 9% of Twitter's global user base, but daily usage has dropped significantly in the region. Musk's ideas have a track record of becoming reality, and he has shown impatience with the situation, according to sources.
