The UK's communications regulator, Ofcom, has initiated a formal investigation into the US-based social media platform X under the UK's Cyber Security Act. The investigation aims to assess whether Platform X has adequately protected UK users from illegal content. This action follows reports that the "Grok" chatbot account on X was allegedly used to create and distribute sexually explicit content involving real individuals, including both adult women and minors.
Ofcom's press release highlighted serious concerns regarding these allegations and outlined the initial phase of the investigation, which involves gathering and analyzing evidence to determine if Platform X has breached its legal obligations. The outcome of this investigation could have significant implications for the platform's operations in the UK.
