Musk says X Community Notes increasingly ‘gamed by governments & legacy media’

Elon Musk claimed that X's fact-checking tool was being 'gamed' by governments and media, especially targeting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy amid criticism from Donald Trump.

Experts, including professors from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Cornell University, expressed concern over Musk's tactics, stating they threaten the integrity of online platforms and propagated misinformation.
Ukrainian and international leaders criticized Musk and Trump for their statements, asserting that they play into Russian narratives.
