eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant demands X remove 23 posts with murder video or block it for Australians. X partially complies by limiting visibility to Australians but rejects global deletion. Fine of 825,000 AUD per day for noncompliance. Prominent figures like Alex Jones and Eva Vlaardingerbroek shared the video. Grant's office pushes for age verification mandates by 2025. Previous clash over Sydney church stabbing video ended with X's local block. Elon Musk calls Grant national censor. X argues no country dictates global content rules. Critics accuse Grant of acting like internet owner. Dispute highlights governments pushing extraterritorial censorship. UK follows similar path.
