Elon Musk labels UK government ‘fascist’ as X faces possible ban amid Grok image controversy

Amid mounting pressure on X and Grok, Elon Musk has targeted the UK government for trying to suppress free speech. The comment by Musk comes as the UK government is mulling imposing fines or a possible ban on X in the country after the company’s AI chatbot Grok generated sexualized images of women and children at the behest of users.

As UK ministers threatened a possible ban on X, Musk went on to claim that the social media platform earlier called Twitter has gone on to become the most downloaded app on the country’s app stores.
