The Irish media regulator announced Tuesday the opening of an investigation into the social network X to determine if it is doing enough to prevent children from accessing pornographic or violent content, according to AFP reports via Agerpres. This investigation marks the first official case opened under the Online Safety Code. The inquiry focuses on X’s compliance with regulations designed to protect minors from harmful material. Authorities will assess whether the platform has adequate measures in place to restrict access to inappropriate content for young users. A significant fine looms for X if found in violation of the rules. The Irish investigation underscores growing global scrutiny of social media platforms and their responsibilities regarding user safety, particularly for children.
