"Elon Musk's X Loses Legal Challenge Against California Content Moderation Disclosure Law"

A federal judge has ruled against Elon Musk's attempt to avoid complying with a California content moderation law, which mandates social media companies to disclose their content moderation practices. The law, Assembly Bill 587, aims to reduce misinformation and hate speech online and requires companies with over $100 million in revenue to submit reports starting in 2024. Musk's company, X Corp., argued the law was unconstitutional, but the judge found they were unlikely to succeed on the merits of their challenge. Musk has faced criticism for his handling of content moderation on Twitter, particularly after reinstating controversial figures like Alex Jones.
