[European Commission: Social Media Platform X Submits Rectification Plan for 'Blue Check Certification'] Odaily Planet Daily News – Thomas Reynier, spokesperson for the European Commission responsible for digital economy affairs, stated at a press conference on the 13th that the social media platform X, owned by American entrepreneur Elon Musk, has submitted a rectification plan to the European Commission regarding its 'Blue Check Certification.' In December 2025, the European Commission issued its first 'non-compliance decision' under the Digital Services Act, fining the X platform €120 million. The European Commission accused X of allowing the 'Blue Check Certification' to be obtained solely through payment, which is misleading to users in terms of interface design. Additionally, X's advertising database was found to be non-compliant in terms of transparency and accessibility, and X failed to provide access to public platform data for eligible researchers as required.
