特朗普政府已正式支持埃隆·马斯克的平台X，就其针对欧盟1.2亿欧元罚款的上诉表示支持。布鲁塞尔裁定，X通过出售蓝标验证徽章却未实质性核实账户持有者身份，欺骗了用户。
The Trump administration has formally backed Elon Musk's platform X in its appeal against a €120 million European Union fine. Brussels ruled that X deceived users by selling blue-check verification badges without meaningfully verifying accountholders' identities.
美国政府已正式支持埃隆·马斯克的社交媒体平台X，就其针对欧盟施加的1.2亿欧元罚款的上诉表示支持。欧盟委员会裁定，X通过出售已验证的蓝标徽章却未充分确认账户持有者身份，违反了数字透明度规则，监管机构称这种做法误导了用户，让他们误解了正在与谁互动。
The United States government has formally backed Elon Musk's social media platform X in its appeal against a €120 million fine imposed by the European Union. The European Commission ruled that X breached digital transparency rules by selling verified blue-check badges without adequately confirming the identity of accountholders, a practice regulators said misled users about who they were interacting with.
华盛顿的介入标志着美欧监管机构就该集团的《数字服务法案》发生罕见的直接冲突，该法案监管大型平台如何处理虚假信息和账户验证。现任政府官员此前曾将欧盟科技规则描述为不公平地针对在该集团运营的美国公司。
Washington's intervention marks a rare direct clash between American and European regulators over the bloc's Digital Services Act, which polices how large platforms handle disinformation and account verification. Officials in the current administration have previously described EU tech rules as unfairly targeting American companies operating in the bloc.
该案将在卢森堡的欧盟普通法院审理，X辩称其徽章系统属于商业言论保护范畴，而非欺骗性行为法律范畴。如果裁决对布鲁塞尔不利，可能会削弱委员会对在欧盟运营的其他主要美国科技平台的执法权力。
The case will be heard before the EU's General Court in Luxembourg, where X argues its badge system falls under commercial speech protections rather than deceptive-practice law. A ruling against Brussels could weaken the Commission's enforcement powers over other major US technology platforms operating across the European Union.
