DSA illegal-content orders (Germany / EU)

National courts + EU Digital Services Coordinator path

Germany sits inside the EU DSA. Member-state authorities can issue orders to act against illegal content; X’s latest global table rolls those into the EU row (3,831 requests, 90.42% actioned). Historic NetzDG court withholdings (e.g. Berlin regional court) remain the older template.

DSA + historic NetzDG withholdings

Germany sits inside the EU aggregate (3,831 removal requests, 90.42% actioned in H2 2024). Illegal-content orders and DSA systemic-risk duties can produce country-level withholdings that only display a notice inside the jurisdiction.

Not allowed

Content withheld for German/EU viewers after a valid order (hate speech, unconstitutional symbols, and other listed illegal categories).

Still allowed

The same posts may remain visible outside Germany. X itself is not blocked. No DE algorithm filter is published.
