Authorities in Indonesia are calling on the Elon Musk-owned X to help battle gambling ads. The country’s Communications and Information Ministry wants a more streamlined process for spotting any gambling-related content and removing it automatically.
In the current system, the ministry has to manually issue a take-down notice, which is time-consuming. It called on X to create a tool that will automate everything.
