EU Commission has ordered X to retain all Grok documents until end 2026, spokesperson says

The European Commission cited safety and political content concerns, requiring X to keep all Grok AI chatbot data until 2026 as part of ongoing regulatory measures.

  • On Thursday, the European Commission ordered X to retain all internal documents and data related to Grok until the end of 2026, Thomas Regnier confirmed.
  • Amid concerns about harmful outputs, regulators probed Grok under the DSA, and the Commission said it received X's responses on Monday to queries triggered by alleged Holocaust denial content.
  • Regulatory scrutiny follows earlier algorithm-focused measures and high-profile platform activity, recalling the January 2025 retention order and Elon Musk's interview with Alice Weidel raising amplification concerns on X.
  • The Commission framed the retention as an extension of existing steps rather than a new probe, with Thomas Regnier calling it `a continuation of the measures that we have already taken` last year.
  • Regnier said, `The DSA is very clear: All platforms must get their house in order because what they generate is unacceptable,` and `It’s X’s responsibility to take care of Grok and prevent harmful outputs.
