Europe's richest man sues Elon Musk's X

Europe’s richest man is suing Elon Musk’s social media network X, claiming the platform is using his newspapers’ content without paying for it.

Bernard Arnault is taking the social media site to court as part of legal proceedings jointly brought by Le Parisien and Les Echos, the French daily newspapers which are owned by his luxury empire LVMH.

The lawsuit, which is also supported by Le Figaro and Le Monde, claims the newspapers are due payment under rules that allow news outlets to receive remuneration from digital platforms for the distribution of their content.

The titles said that X, formerly known as Twitter, had never agreed to open negotiations with French news publishers, unlike Google and Facebook owner Meta.

From using news from other sites without paying for it. Too bad our citizens do not understand why the government did that. It was on behalf of our press.
