## X Faces Privacy Concerns After Suspending EU Data Processing Just a week after X agreed to stop processing European Union user data to train its Grok AI, Austrian advocacy group NOYB filed a complaint against the social media platform on Monday. NOYB's complaint alleges that X has suspended the processing of personal data to train its artificial intelligence, a violation of the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The complaint is the latest in a series of privacy challenges facing X. In January, the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) fined X €405 million for violating the GDPR. The DPC found that X had failed to adequately protect user data from being shared with third parties. ### NOYB's Complaint NOYB's complaint alleges that X's use of personal data to train its artificial intelligence without seeking consent is a violation of the GDPR. NOYB argues that X's actions are a “serious breach” of the GDPR and that the company should be fined. ### X's Response X has not yet responded to NOYB's complaint. However, the company has previously said that it is committed to complying with the GDPR. In a statement issued in January, X said that it was “deeply sorry” for the data breach that led to the DPC's fine. The company said that it was taking steps to improve its data protection practices. ### Implications for X The NOYB complaint is a significant threat to X. If the DPC finds that X has violated the GDPR, the company could face a further fine of up to €20 million. The complaint could also damage X's reputation and make it more difficult for the company to attract users.
