Musk boosting his own tweets.

I mean, I don't like the guy, but it is sort of his platform, he can boost his own tweets however he wants. It's essentially a private forum made public. This is like trying to regulate phpBB forums that the owners and moderators can't boost or sticky their own threads.

The EU won't because they don't have their own replacement apps since they've regulated tech companies off of the continent. Plus you don't ban the cash cow you can fine to oblivion.
