French police raid Elon Musk's X office

In France, according to law enforcement agencies, searches were conducted at the offices of company X (formerly Twitter) in central Paris, as part of an investigation related to allegations of distributing child pornography, sexual deepfakes, and Holocaust denial through the Grok chatbot. Elon Musk has been summoned for questioning. According to government representatives, the inspection uncovered materials confirming suspicions of manipulating the platform's algorithms. Russian entrepreneur Pavel Durov has already expressed his support for Musk. Starting September 1, 2025, under a new law, all public officials in France will be required to use only the government messenger Tchap—with penalties established for using other services.
