Malaysia Restricts Grok AI Chatbot Access

The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) directed a temporary restriction on access to the Grok AI chatbot in Malaysia effective 11 January 2026, citing repeated misuse to generate obscene, sexually explicit, non-consensual and minor-involved images. MCMC said prior notices on 3 and 8 January found X Corp/xAI's responses relying on user reports insufficient, and access remains blocked until effective moderation safeguards are implemented.
