French authorities raid X's Paris office as UK probe into tech giant intensifies

A cybercrime unit from the Paris prosecutor’s office carried out a raid on X’s headquarters in Paris, joined by representatives from Europol and French law enforcement agencies, as part of an ongoing investigation that has now expanded to include Grok. The UK-based probe, which initially launched last year, has seen Elon Musk and former X CEO Linda Yaccarino called for hearings in April, amid allegations of complicity in child pornography distribution and Holocaust denial content. As the investigation continues to grow, experts are examining claims that X manipulated its algorithms to control the spread of sensitive information, sparking widespread concern among lawmakers and regulators worldwide.
