"Not In Our Name (NION) Women, a collective of cisgender women who stand in solidarity with the trans community, argued the ongoing situation proved demonstrably that the 'real threat' to women and girls is not trans people, but from 'systems that enable powerful men to act without meaningful accountability'."
"In the UK, the government called the content "absolutely appalling" and asked media regulator Ofcom to look into the issue."
An AI model from xAI and X, Grok, was used by users to create sexualised images of individuals, including females as young as 12.

Not In Our Name (NION) Women, a collective of over 75,000 cisgender women allied with the trans community, called attention to systemic failures that enable powerful men to act without accountability. The collective criticized unequal government responses that focus on trans people rather than platform harms. The Women and Equalities Committee quit X and urged departmental account deletions.
