"Donald Trump's free speech tsar has compared the Government's threats against social media platform X to Vladimir Putin's Russia. Sarah Rogers, under-secretary for public diplomacy at the US State Department, made the comparison as part of a series of messages criticising the UK. Technology Secretary Liz Kendall said the Government would back regulator Ofcom if it decided to implement a ban on accessing X from the UK over its artificial intelligence Grok being used to create deepfake images."
The Independent funds paywall-free reporting through donations that allow deployment of journalists to cover stories such as reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech. The outlet investigates financial ties like Elon Musk’s pro-Trump PAC and produces documentaries such as 'The A Word' highlighting American women fighting for reproductive rights. Donations sustain reporters speaking to both sides and allow free access to reporting and analysis. US and UK tensions have escalated over content on social platform X, with comparisons to Russia and threats of a UK access ban over AI tool Grok producing deepfake and sexualised images of children. Ofcom is assessing X and xAI’s responses.
