An Australian court upheld an order on Friday for X (formerly Twitter) to pay a fine of A$610,500 for failing to comply with a regulator’s request for information disclosing anti-child-abuse practices, amid efforts to impose responsibilities on digital platforms to protect children from online exploitation. In his decision, Justice Wheelahan emphasized that non-compliance with regulatory requests undermines the efficacy of the eSafety Commissioner’s role, which is designed to monitor and enhance child protection in the digital environment.
