1 Yes, they very likely will ban it. Musk and The Orange Man are the enemy.

2 Indict in our court system any and all those involved under Section 242 of Title 18. Then send a writ of extradition request.

3 Considering the stories they are referencing are all bots or enemies of X for sexualization and the kiddie one is just a flat out lie....

Ban all trade with the UK and ban our military from having any coordination with them.

6 Elon's Grok AI also famously declared itself "MechaHitler" and hallucinated a false claim that Ashkenazi Jews(get it, "nazi"?) were at the center of radical left politics.
It's been fixed, guardrails put in place to prevent this from repeating, but holy crap.
Unlimited free speech with no guardrails is an American value, don't expect other countries to follow it.
