The US Department of State has accused Europe of 'Orwellian' censorship in the context of regulations imposed on online platforms, saying they protect Europe's political class at the expense of free speech. Criticism has focused in particular on the Digital Services Act (DSA), which has led to legal action against US companies such as Meta and X. In addition, US authorities have increased their monitoring of online postings by foreigners seeking access to the US, continuing the Trump administration's line of criticism of EU policies.
