An Australian appeals court ruled against X Corp., owned by Elon Musk, rejecting a challenge to demands for details on how the company is addressing child exploitation content on its platform.
The court upheld an earlier decision obligating X to respond to a notice from eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant, who spearheads a government agency focused on online safety, and ordered X to pay legal costs.
Inman Grant, a former Twitter employee, emphasized the importance of transparency and compliance with Australian law, particularly following a merger that claims to dissolve predecessor responsibilities.
