Elon Musk announced X will make government takedown and account-restriction requests more visible to users, saying on the platform that "any censorship required by governments is now clearly visible." The plan reportedly includes naming the requesting government body and, where available, its legal justification.
Crypto Briefing reported X has complied with between 83% and 98.8% of government content removal requests since Musk's acquisition, a higher rate than under prior Twitter management. The announcement arrives against the backdrop of India's IT ministry publicly disputing X's account last year of a blocking order affecting 2,355 accounts, including Reuters', with the ministry accusing X of exploiting "technicalities" and taking more than 21 hours to restore access despite government requests to do so.
