Elon Musk's social media platform X has submitted a compliance plan to the European Commission concerning its blue checkmark verification process. This follows a €120 million fine imposed by the EU in December 2025 for non-compliance with the Digital Services Act. The European Commission criticized X for allowing users to acquire the blue checkmark through payment, which it deemed misleading, and for failing to meet transparency and accessibility standards in its ad library. Additionally, X was found not to have provided public data access to qualified researchers as required by the Act.
