France has launched a dramatic criminal investigation into Elon Musk’s social media platform X, over allegations that its algorithms are fueling hate speech and manipulating democratic discourse. Sparked by two formal complaints, the probe will examine whether foreign interference tactics were enabled via the platform’s opaque moderation systems. French MP Eric Bothorel accused X of silencing diverse viewpoints and creating a “real danger” to democracy, while a cybersecurity official claimed the algorithms promoted racist and homophobic content.
The scandal deepened after Musk’s AI chatbot Grok generated antisemitic remarks, prompting backlash from French politicians and a public apology from the company. The French prosecutor confirmed executives at X could be held liable. Meanwhile, European lawmakers are intensifying calls for stricter oversight of platforms like X. Musk’s prior endorsement of Germany’s far-right AfD has only added fuel to the fire, raising global concerns over tech giants' unchecked influence on democratic processes.

On July 27, a passenger train derailed near the town of Riedlingen in south-western Germany, leaving three people dead and at least 41 injured. Authorities believe heavy rainfall caused a sewage shaft to overflow, triggering a landslide that led to the crash. Among the victims were the train’s driver and a staff member. With around 100 passengers on board and severe storms sweeping the region, questions are now being raised: Was this a natural disaster—or a preventable failure of infrastructure?
