According to Reuters reports, Australian regulators imposed a fine of 610,500 Australian dollars (currently about RMB 2.814 million) on X (Twitter) for failing to cooperate with an investigation into anti-child abuse practices.
The regulator said X’s violations were more serious, including failing to answer questions about the time it takes to respond to reports of child abuse, the steps it takes to detect child abuse on live streams, and the number of its content reviews, safety and public policy staff.
X made it clear to regulators that it had cut 80% of its workforce globally and had no public policy staff in Australia, compared to two public policy staff before Elon Musk took over.
Eliminating child exploitation is the number one priority”, Musk said in a post after acquiring Twitter. But the Australian regulator said that when X was asked how it would prevent child grooming on the platform, it responded that it was “not a service used by a large number of young people.
X said it dropped its proactive detection of child abuse in public posts after Musk’s acquisition.
