Breton said he had indications that X was being used to disseminate illegal content and disinformation in the European Union.
The recently implemented Digital Services Act (DSA) requires large online platforms, including X and Meta's (META.O) Facebook, to remove illegal content and to take measures to tackle the risks to public security and civic discourse.
X has redistributed resources and refocused internal teams to address the rapidly evolving situation, Yaccarino said, without specifying the changes.
She added that the Musk-owned company assembled a leadership group to assess the situation shortly after the attack.
