US bars former EU commissioner, activists over alleged censorship

The Trump administration on Tuesday imposed visa bans on a former European Union commissioner and anti-disinformation campaigners it says were involved in censoring US social media platforms. Trump officials have ordered US diplomats ‍to build opposition to the European Union’s landmark Digital Services Act (DSA), which is intended to combat hateful speech, misinformation and disinformation, but which Washington says stifles free speech and ​imposes costs on U.S. tech companies.
