Indonesia warns Grok AI could be blocked over compliance issues

Komdigi warns that it may block the AI platform Grok permanently if the company fails to comply with Indonesian regulations.

Director General Alexander Sabar said that non-compliance could lead to such action, following the launch of new biometric registration rules.

The platform, owned by Elon Musk’s X, has already implemented regional restrictions, including geo-blocking for Indonesia.

X has expressed willingness to follow local rules, according to Alexander.

Previously, DPR’s Commission I had called for dialogue between the government and X to balance free expression and public safety.

The Indonesian government continues to monitor compliance with regulations related to digital and AI services.
