Coimisiún na Meán said it had concerns about X’s compliance, particularly given platforms had a nine-month lead-in time. File picture

Ireland’s media regulator has given Elon Musk-owned X until Friday to explain why it hasn’t implemented age controls to watch pornography on the social media platform.

Coimisiún na Meán has said it will take “further action” if it finds evidence that X is not complying with its obligations to keep children safe online.
