The U.S. State Department has sharply criticized Europe for its approach to regulating online speech, particularly targeting the EU's Digital Services Act.
American officials claim that these regulations amount to 'Orwellian' censorship, arguing that they suppress free expression and shield politicians from public criticism. The U.S. warns that Europe's tightening of online speech rules could serve as a cautionary tale for the United States.
