Musk's X must face part of lawsuit over child pornography video
The X app is seen on a phone in this image. (Photographer: Gabby Jones/Bloomberg) Warning: The following story contains graphic details. A federal appeals court on Friday revived part of a lawsuit accusing Elon Musk's X of becoming a haven for child exploitation, though the court said the platform deserves broad immunity from claims over objectionable content. While rejecting some claims, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco said X, formerly Twitter, must face a claim it was negligent by failing to promptly report a video containing explicit images of two underage boys to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC). The case predated Musk's 2022 purchase of Twitter. A trial judge had dismissed the case in December 2023. X's lawyers did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Musk was not a defendant. One plaintiff, John Doe 1, said he was 13 when he and a friend, John Doe 2, were lured on SnapChat into providing nude photos of themselves to someone John Doe 1 thought was a 16-year-old girl at his school. The SnapChat user was actually a child pornography trafficker who blackmailed the plaintiffs into providing additional explicit photos. Those images were later compiled into a video that was posted on Twitter. According to court papers, Twitter took nine days after learning about the content to take it down and report it to NCMEC, following more than 167,000 views, court papers showed. Circuit Judge Danielle Forrest said section 230 of the federal Communications Decency Act, which protects online platforms from liability over user content, didn't shield X from the negligence claim once it learned about the pornography. 'The facts alleged here, coupled with the statutory 'actual knowledge' requirement, separates the duty to report child pornography to NCMEC from Twitter's role as a publisher,' she wrote for a three-judge panel. X must also face a claim its infrastructure made it too difficult to report child pornography. It was found immune from claims it knowingly benefited from sex trafficking, and created search features that 'amplify' child pornography posts. Dani Pinter, a lawyer at the National Center on Sexual Exploitation, which represented the plaintiffs, said in a statement: 'We look forward to discovery and ultimately trial against X to get justice and accountability.' The case is Doe 1 et al v Twitter Inc et al, 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 24-177. Reporting by Jonathan Stempel in New York; Editing by Cynthia Osterman.

Enhance's Origins CCS Hub receives regulatory approval
CALGARY, AB, /CNW/ - Enhance Energy, operator of Alberta's largest carbon capture and storage (CCS) initiative and founding partner of the Alberta Carbon Trunk Line (ACTL) Project, has received regulatory approval (Directive 065) from the Alberta Energy Regulator for its Origins saline aquifer CCS project in central Alberta. The project will enable commercial-scale emissions management for industrial emitters through permanent sequestration of captured CO2. Enhance has been operating the Clive CCS project with enhanced oil recovery for over five years with 7 million tonnes of Alberta industrial sector CO2 emissions permanently and safely stored. This project has resulted in economic revival of legacy hydrocarbon fields, with sustained jobs and tax base in the local economy. Repurposing existing mature infrastructure to permanently store CO2 and produce previously unrecoverable resources is one way of growing Alberta's low carbon energy sector. Enhance is Canada's largest geological sequestration operator that credits emission reductions under provincial and federal compliance programs. "We are incredibly proud of our role in energy production and emissions reduction. The Origins Project will leverage the skills and expertise of Albertans, create jobs both locally and provincially, and generate new economic activity across Alberta. Having a CCS hub connected to existing CO2 transportation infrastructure provides certainty to investment in Alberta's low carbon economy," says Chris Kupchenko, President and COO of Enhance. The project is positioned to manage CO2 from hard-to-abate industries, like cement, oil and gas, power generation, and petrochemicals that exist along Alberta's Edmonton-Calgary Corridor — including the Alberta Industrial Heartland, but also from existing large emissions sources or carbon dioxide removals in central and southern Alberta. About Enhance Energy Inc. Enhance develops world-class and trusted CCS projects that decarbonize global commodities and the energy we produce. The Enhance team has extensive experience in the planning and implementation of large-scale CCS projects that permanently sequester CO2 emissions. For more information, please visit
