EU could introduce political ad rules for Facebook and Twitter

Vera Jourova, EU commissioner for justice, consumers and gender equality, said in a CNBC interview lawmakers in Brussels will introduce rules for more transparency in political campaigning. Companies including Facebook and Twitter will have to obey them.

Legislation around political ads would bolster the EU’s efforts to take a leading role regulating the world’s biggest technology companies on issues ranging from disinformation to competition and data privacy.
