Elon Musk's rebranding of Twitter as 'X' has resulted in the microblogging platform being temporarily blocked in Indonesia, owing to the country's strict laws prohibiting online pornography and gambling. According to Indonesia's Ministry of Communication and Informatics, the domain had previously been used by sites that did not adhere to the country's strict laws against "negative" content such as pornography and gambling, reports Al Jazeera.
