In a brazen display of regulatory overreach, the European Union has slapped Elon Musk's X with a €120 million ($140 million) fine under the Digital Services Act (DSA), targeting alleged breaches like misleading blue checkmarks, opaque ad disclosures, and restricted data access for researchers.

That investment, made in 2015 and 2016, has since ballooned to a staggering $170 million, now the single largest asset in Epstein’s estate.
