Elon Musk’s X is facing scrutiny for allegedly violating US sanctions by selling premium accounts to Iranian leaders, despite publicly supporting protesters in the country.
According to reports, certain Iranian regime officials had access to premium accounts on X, which raised concerns about the company’s compliance with US sanctions. The issue came to light after a WIRED inquiry, which prompted X to remove check marks from the accounts in question. This move suggests that X may have been aware of the potential issue and took steps to address it after being contacted by the media.
The revelation may have significant implications for X and its parent company, as it appears to contradict X‘s public stance on supporting protesters in Iran. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen how X will respond to the allegations and what measures it will take to ensure compliance with US sanctions going forward.
