The US State Department has launched a strong campaign against the European Union's new online speech regulations, particularly the Digital Services Act, accusing them of 'Orwellian' censorship.
American officials claim these rules are being used to shield European politicians from criticism and to suppress freedom of expression on social media platforms. The Trump administration has intensified its rhetoric, warning that Europe's approach could set a dangerous precedent for free speech globally. This clash comes as US-EU trade talks reach a critical stage, adding tension to transatlantic relations.
The controversy highlights deep differences between American and European views on balancing free speech with online content regulation.
