Elon Musk's Grok and other AI apps face 'nudifying' ban

On 2026-04-14, the UK government widened a bill-backed crackdown to make it a criminal offence to make, adapt, supply, or offer AI tools capable of creating non-consensual nudified images. The measure was expanded to cover foreign-based companies and services targeting British users, bringing apps such as Grok into scope. The change is a strategic technology control aimed at restricting harmful AI image-generation tools.
