India pressure on X escalates as 600 accounts removed in Grok content crackdown

Microblogging platform X has removed 600 accounts and blocked around 3,500 objectionable posts after the Centre flagged the misuse of its AI chatbot Grok to generate obscene content, sources said on Sunday.

Elon Musk’s X is facing a global backlash over the “digital undressing” of images through user prompts on Grok. The platform has come under fire from governments across the world, including in Europe and Asia, warning it of consequences if it failed to adhere to online safety norms. Public calls for action on both X and Grok over the issue have also been growing.
