U.S. billionaire Elon Musk has responded to Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese after he criticised X (formally Twitter) for refusing to comply with an order from the country’s online regulator to remove content.

The battle between the X owner and the Australian government has continued after the Federal Court of Australia issued a two-day injunction forcing the Big Tech company to block all users around the world from viewing footage of an alleged terror attack in a Sydney church.
