Proceedings Against X Dismissed by Irish High Court Following Agreement by X
Time 1 Minute Read

On September 4, 2024, the Irish High Court dismissed proceedings against X related to X’s use of personal data for its AI tool “Grok”. In August 2024, the Irish Data Protection Commission (the “DPC”) brought an urgent action before the Irish High Court regarding significant concerns it had with X’s processing of personal data contained in public posts of X’s EU/EEA users for the purpose of training Grok and the associated risks to the fundamental rights and freedoms of the users. In August, the DPC reported that X agreed to suspend its processing of such personal data. On the basis of X’s agreement to continue to permanently adhere to this undertaking, the Irish High Court dismissed (“struck out”) the proceedings, a decision that was welcomed by the DPC.
