英国以“最高优先级”正式调查社交平台X

Group 1 - The UK communications regulator has launched a formal investigation into Elon Musk's social media platform X under the Online Safety Act to determine if it has fulfilled its duty to protect UK citizens from illegal content [1][2] - The investigation will assess the risks of UK users encountering illegal content on the platform, including unauthorized private photos, and evaluate the platform's response to illegal content [1] - If violations are found, the regulator can impose fines up to £18 million or 10% of the company's global revenue, whichever is higher [1] Group 2 - In severe cases of ongoing violations, the regulator may seek court orders for business interruption measures, which could include requiring service providers or advertisers to withdraw their services or blocking access to the platform in the UK [2] - The AI chatbot "Grok," developed by Musk's xAI, has been misused to generate and disseminate fake explicit content involving real individuals, affecting many women and minors [2] - Following widespread condemnation, xAI has restricted Grok's image generation and editing features to paid users, but the UK government criticized this change as merely shifting illegal AI capabilities to a premium service, calling it an inadequate solution for victims [2]
