  • Paris prosecutors raided the France offices of Elon Musk's social media platform, X.
  • The raid is part of an investigation opened in January 2025 regarding complaints about X's algorithm and recommended content.
  • Elon Musk and former X CEO Linda Yaccarino have been summoned for hearings in April as part of the probe.
  • The investigation was expanded in July 2025 due to reports of sexually explicit deepfakes and holocaust denial content on X.
  • X has previously called the investigation 'politically-motivated' and denied allegations of algorithm manipulation.
  • The prosecutor's office announced it is leaving X and will communicate via LinkedIn and Instagram moving forward.
