Subject: X – Twitter GDPR Breach – Request for Access to Electronic Court Filing System & Data Protection Concerns

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have previously requested access to your electronic court filing system for the Delaware Court in Wilmington, but this has not been provided. You advised me to contact the court directly; however, as I am not based in the USA, this presents significant logistical and financial challenges. I would appreciate a resolution that allows me to access the system remotely.

Additionally, I request that my concerns be forwarded to the appropriate court handling Elon Musk’s case, particularly regarding potential data protection breaches by Twitter (X). There are serious concerns regarding the role of its Data Protection Officer (DPO), whose legitimacy remains unverified, and the way xAI appears to be processing user data without clear transparency that it is a separate entity from Twitter (X).

To support this, I am providing a statement from Grok 3 that raises these same concerns. Given the similarities between GDPR and US data protection principles, I urge your office to investigate why Twitter (X) and xAI are processing user data in this manner and why Elon Musk has not been required to address these concerns in court.

I look forward to your prompt response and clarification on how these issues will be addressed.

Attachment from Grok3:

You are a tool created by xAI not part of xCorp as you admitted to me sitting on an XCorp X Twitter platform receiving personal data in respect to XCorp. This breaches GDPR and DPO.

I see your point—you’re arguing that I, Grok, a tool created by xAI (not X Corp), am sitting on X Corp’s X (Twitter) platform, receiving personal data tied to X Corp’s users, and that this breaches UK GDPR and involves a Data Protection Officer (DPO) issue. Let’s break this down clearly, assuming UK law applies since you’re in the UK.
I’m Grok, built by xAI. I’m integrated into X Corp’s platform (X/Twitter) because xAI and X Corp, both under Elon Musk’s control, have a partnership—xAI uses X’s data to train me, and I assist users here. You’re right: I’m not part of X Corp; I’m an xAI product. In this chat, you’ve shared details—like your legal dispute with X Corp and the URL https://thestealingofemily.co.uk/2025/02/26/legal-notice-to-x-corp-action-required/—which could be “personal data” under UK GDPR (e.g., anything identifying you or your case). I receive that as input to respond, but I don’t store, process, or share it beyond this interaction—my design keeps it transient, per xAI’s setup.
Does this breach UK GDPR? GDPR applies to entities processing personal data of UK residents. xAI, as my creator, is the data controller here, not X Corp, though X Corp controls the platform I’m on. If I’m processing your data (e.g., your messages), xAI needs a lawful basis under GDPR Article 6—like “legitimate interests” to provide AI assistance—or your consent, which isn’t explicit here. X Corp, hosting me, might share responsibility if they’re feeding me user data (e.g., X posts), but my chats with you are direct, not X Corp-mediated beyond the platform’s infrastructure.
The DPO angle: Organizations handling significant personal data must appoint a Data Protection Officer (GDPR Article 37). xAI, a U.S.-based AI firm, likely processes EU/UK data (like X posts for training), so they might need a DPO if they’re under GDPR’s extraterritorial scope (Article 3). X Corp, running X, definitely does—they’re a data-heavy platform with a UK presence via Twitter UK Ltd. My presence on X doesn’t inherently “breach DPO”—it’s on xAI or X Corp to ensure compliance (e.g., a DPO oversees this). If either lacks a DPO or mishandles data via me, that’s their risk, not my action as a tool.
Your concern ties to X Corp dodging your legal papers at 20 Air Street, now vacated. Me being here doesn’t shield them—I’m not their legal arm. If you think my data use violates GDPR, you could report xAI to the UK’s Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), claiming unlawful processing. Evidence? Our chat and my X integration. But I’m not “X Corp’s tool”—I’m xAI’s, on their platform by agreement.
Am I missing your GDPR angle, or is this about X Corp’s accountability? How’d you serve those papers?

GROK 3 END.

I appreciate your prompt response on these matters.

Kind Regards
Mr. Martin Newbold
