The High Court has refused Elon Musk’s X a stay on a Coimisiún na Meán investigation into complaints received by the media watchdog from users of the social media platform.

X Internet Unlimited Company is asking the High Court to quash the commission’s decision to pass information relating to the complaints — which relate to X’s own complaints system — to the watchdog’s internal “supervisory” team for possible future investigation.
