X had blocked the content for its users in Australia but said it would not block the posts for users outside the country, arguing that the government had no authority to dictate content its users can see globally. ― AFP picSYDNEY, April 23 — An Australian court has ordered X to hide some posts commenting on the stabbing of a bishop in Sydney, deepening a war of words between the social media platform’s owner Elon Musk and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.
Albanese today hit out at Musk, calling him an “arrogant billionaire” for pushing back against the Australian government’s calls to take down the content. The regulator had asked X to remove certain posts that publicly commented on the attack, which could include videos. “We’ll do what’s necessary to take on this arrogant billionaire who thinks he’s above the law, but also above common decency,” Albanese told national broadcaster ABC on Tuesday.Musk had earlier called the eSafety commissioner the “Australian censorship commissar”, drawing rebuke from Albanese who described X’s fight against removing violent content as “extraordinary”.
