Spanish PM Sanchez says the Council of Ministers will invoke Article 8 to ask the Public Prosecutor to investigate Meta (META), X and TikTok

• Full post "Today, the Council of Ministers will invoke Article 8 of the Organic Statute of the Public Prosecutor's Office to ask it to investigate the crimes that X, Meta and TikTok could be committing for the creation and dissemination of child pornography through their AIs."

The invocation of Article 8 for an investigation into Meta, X, and TikTok reflects growing scrutiny over content moderation practices, especially related to sensitive issues like child safety. This could create regulatory headwinds for these platforms, potentially impacting their reputations and operational practices, and may induce heightened volatility in their stock prices as investors weigh the implications.
