Elon Musk fails to appear before Paris prosecutors investigating X platform

Monday, 20 April 2026, 22:06 · 1 min read

Elon Musk did not show up on Monday for a voluntary interview requested by Paris prosecutors, who had summoned him in February in connection with an investigation into whether X's algorithm was used to interfere in French politics. The probe has since been broadened to cover the alleged spread of Holocaust denial content and sexual deepfakes generated by Grok, X's artificial intelligence chatbot. Musk's refusal to engage with French authorities marks a significant escalation in tensions between the social media platform and European regulators over content moderation and legal accountability.
