Regulatory drama unfolds: EU Commission slapped a certain social platform with a €120M fine over transparency issues, then got caught exploiting an ad system loophole to artificially inflate video metrics. The platform responded by terminating their ad account and patching the vulnerability. The irony? An authority punishing others for lack of transparency while gaming engagement numbers themselves. This incident raises questions about who monitors the monitors in decentralized platform governance.

This is hilarious. The enforcer cheats themselves but punishes others first—what an unbelievable move.

This is ridiculous; the regulators themselves are the first to break the rules.

Haha, what a slap in the face. Accusing others of being non-transparent while cheating themselves—this EU is just too outrageous.

Ha, this is awkward... The EU is slapping itself in the face? Fining others for transparency, yet playing with data manipulation outside the rules themselves. Hilarious.

LOL, the regulatory authorities are already playing themselves before the platforms even get a turn.
