The letter sent by Arcom gives Twitter a deadline of Nov. 24 by which it should confirm that it can still adhere to its obligations under French law to moderate content.

for the New York Times published last week, Yoel Roth, the former head of trust and safety at Twitter, wrote that “Twitter remains bound by the laws and regulations of the countries in which it operates,” which could complicate Musk’s professed wish for free speech to drive more decisions at Twitter. “Regulators have significant tools at their disposal to enforce their will on Twitter and on Mr. Musk,” Roth added, citing the European Digital Services Act.

The departure of Roth and other employees tasked with security and compliance at Twitter after Musk’s takeover prompted the Federal Trade Commission in the United States to warn that it was prepared to step in to verify that the company was respecting the terms of an agreement to ensure data security and privacy for users of the platform., Musk told Twitter employees in an email that the company “will do whatever it takes to adhere to both the letter and spirit” of its agreement with the FTC.
