Musk’s X must face claim of negligence over child abuse images, judge rules

A federal appeals court has revived part of a lawsuit against Elon Musk's X (formerly Twitter), which accused the platform of becoming a haven for child exploitation. The court rejected some claims, but ruled that X must face a claim of negligence for failing to promptly report a video containing explicit images of two underage boys to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC). The court noted that X deserves broad immunity from claims over objectionable content, but found that the negligence claim could proceed. The decision underscores the ongoing legal challenges faced by social media platforms regarding the handling of harmful and illegal content on their platforms.
