IOC Internet Investigation 2026

UK: US Internet Companies Scrutinised Across Western World! (12.2.2026)

These concerns relate to whether personal data has been processed lawfully, fairly and transparently, and whether appropriate safeguards were built into Grok’s design and deployment to prevent the generation of harmful manipulated images using personal data. Where those safeguards fail, individuals lose control of their personal data in ways that expose them to serious harm. Examining these risks is central to the ICO’s role in protecting people’s rights and holding organisations to account as they design and deploy AI technology.  

Musk's "Grok" in Hitler and Sexual Deviancy Outrage!

US: Musk Blasts UK Bid to Block X Over AI Tool! (12.1.2026)

Recently, however, Grok has been allowing X-users to generate AI images of women, teenagers (youths), and children (many premised on “real” or “known” individuals) – with these images being “naked” and “sexualised” in various ways. It seems that this Grok-activity was/is feeding into paedophilic and misogynistic tendencies – as well as violating privacy laws. Musk seems to think that this activity should be “protected” by “freedom of speech” and “freedom of expression” legislation – even though these vary around the world. The problem is a broader issue which has seen the governments of Western Europe permit the US-controlled internet to invade sovereign (non-American) geographical spaces and apply US law where such law does not exist (the political left outside of the US has been one of the most prevalent victims of this policy) – the right and far-right the greatest benefiter). The US concept of “freedom of speech” allows “ignorance” to possess the same status as “wisdom” – and herein lies the problem. The UK possesses “responsibility of speech” – where each individual must learn the current acceptable parameters within public debate (private is another matter) – and operate from within those limitations. The only place to possess “freedom of speech” in the UK is the British Parliament.
