Elon Musk-owned social media platform X has asked a court to review a federal regulator fine of more than $600,000 for its compliance failures in dealing with child sexual exploitation material.
Federal Court filings show the company, formerly known as Twitter, initiated the action last week in a bid to test the legality of the eSafety Commissioner's penalty.
"X Corp. has lodged proceedings seeking judicial review of decisions of the eSafety Commissioner in this matter," a spokesperson for the online watchdog said on Thursday, adding it did not comment on legal proceedings.
