The airing of Tucker Carlson's interview with Vladimir Putin is set to be a significant test for the EU's new Digital Services Act, designed to regulate tech companies and social media platforms. This legislation mandates the removal of illegal or harmful content, including that which incites violence or hate speech.

Platforms like X, owned by Elon Musk and currently under investigation for non-compliance, are required to proactively remove illegal content.
