1. Court orders Elon Musk’s X to block Sydney church stabbing footage
Australia’s online safety watchdog said the social media platform should shield the “graphic” video from all users, not just Australians, saying it would cause “irreparable harm” if it continued to circulate, leading a court to order a far wider block.
An Australian court has ordered billionaire Elon Musk’s social media platform to block every user from seeing violent footage related to a Sydney church stabbing, not just block it for Australian audiences.
Amid political unity against X Corp’s defiant stance to keep potentially harmful content online, the nation’s internet cop launched the matter in the Federal Court on Monday evening.
During a hastily arranged hearing, a barrister for the eSafety Commissioner said the “graphic and violent” video remained online on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The first video we saw of this attack and posted here at Vlad, had the audio deliberately removed from the portion where the attack was, specifically so that people could not hear the stabber/attacker yelling Allah hu Ackbar. Truth is rapidly moving from unacceptable and dangerous to your career, to out and out illegal.
The video in question:

He deals with one of the same events I covered here in a post earlier today.
