Australia’s Bondi attack royal commission examining online hate and extremist content criticizes Elon Musk’s X, according to multiple reports. The commission seeks input related to how online platforms handle content that may promote hatred or extremism. Both outlets say X refuses to participate or speak before the commission, with the platform characterized as having “double standards” in how it addresses online hate. The reports frame the issue as a response to X’s position on free speech and its handling of extremist or hateful material. The commission is described as reviewing online hate and extremist content in the context of the Bondi attack. While the articles focus on X’s lack of cooperation, they also indicate the commission’s broader interest in platform policies and practices. No specific details are provided in the excerpts about what questions X was asked or what evidence the commission intends to rely on. Overall, the reporting agrees that the commission’s criticism centers on X’s non-attendance and alleged inconsistency in applying rules relating to harmful online content.
