Ofcom: X removes illegal content faster, but concerns remain

UK regulator Ofcom says X is now meeting its promised review times for illegal content reports: 24 hours on average and 85% of posts within 48 hours. However, the regulator still doubts whether X actually removes illegal posts and awaits more analysis of its work with outside experts. Ofcom's investigation into X, opened in January over sexual deepfakes made via Grok, continues.
