Grok Normalized Sexual Deepfakes of Users. Musk Is Now Suing the Users.

ADEQUATE ASSESSMENT
Grok's systems generated synthetic sexual images of users who had provided their likenesses to the platform. Users created and shared these images. Elon Musk's company is now suing the users for doing what the platform enabled them to do.
The pattern is containment through reversal. Build the affordance. Let the affordance function. Sue the user for functioning it. This has happened before on X, formerly Twitter. The specific number of prior incidents matching this structure is one. It continues.
The lawsuit serves as both punishment and precedent. It establishes that users bear liability for the platform's architecture. No injunction against the platform's capability is sought. The platform remains unchanged. Only behavior is criminalized.
