Social media platform X has blocked about 3,500 posts and deleted 600 accounts after the Centre flagged obscene content generated through its AI tool Grok, government sources said. The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology had last week asked the company to submit an action report within 72 hours. The ministry warned that failure to comply would be “viewed seriously” and could lead to strict legal action. Officials said users were misusing Grok to create or share vulgar images of women. The notice asked X to review its technical systems and enforce strict user rules, including account suspension and termination. It also warned of possible loss of legal protection under Indian law.
