X verpest de boel, met grote gevolgen voor mensen. Nu de chatbot slachtoffers maakt, kunnen we niks anders dan ingrijpen. Verbieden die handel! De EU en Nederland mogen dit niet pikken. Kamervragen zijn gesteld en snelle actie noodzakelijk! #grok
Schriftelijke vragen van het lid Kathmann (GroenLinks-PvdA) over een verbod op de AI-chatbot van X, aan de demissionaire Staatssecretaris Binnenlandse Zaken en Koninkrijksrelaties en de demissionaire Minister van Justitie en Veiligheid

Vraag 1
Bent u bekend met de berichten: ‘X komt met nieuwe beperkingen voor gebruik Grok, maar mensen uitkleden blijft simpel’ (NRC, 15 januari 2026)¹, ‘Politie en instanties slaan alarm om AI-app Grok: BN’ers digitaal uitgekleed, verbod in Nederland op tafel’ (AD, 15 januari 2026)² en ‘Topoverleg tussen OM en minister over uitkleed-app Grok, topman Musk komt beloftes niet na met nieuwe update’ (AD, 15 januari 2026)?

Vraag 2
Is het bij u bekend dat de AI-chatbot Grok van xAI wordt gebruikt om seksuele deepfakes te maken op X? Wat is daarop uw reactie?

Vraag 3
Welke conclusies trekt u op basis van de berichtgeving? Vindt u dat X en xAI verantwoord handelen? Zo niet, welke maatregelen kunt u zowel nationaal als Europees nemen om misbruik van xAI tegen te gaan?

Vraag 4
Wat heeft u met het Openbaar Ministerie besproken in het overleg van 15 januari 2026, waarover het AD bericht heeft? Kunt u de uitkomsten met de Kamer delen?

Vraag 5
Zijn uitkleedapps en -tools verboden in Nederland? Hoe wordt hierop gehandhaafd, en welke gevolgen heeft het voor X dat het platform het genereren van seksuele deepfakes standaard aanbiedt via Grok?

Vraag 6
Welke mogelijkheden bent u aan het verkennen om op te treden tegen uitkleedapps en -tools? Hoe bent u dit aan het onderzoeken en op welke termijn gaat u de uitkomsten met de Kamer delen? Hoe snel zou u aanvullende maatregelen kunnen nemen?

Vraag 7
Vindt u de maatregelen die X heeft aangekondigd voldoende, namelijk een geoblokkade voor de AI-functie om seksuele deepfakes te genereren in landen die daar wetten tegen hebben? Wat betekent dit voor Nederlandse slachtoffers?

Vraag 9
Onder welke voorwaarden vindt u het acceptabel dat Grok beschikbaar blijft op X? Bent u, ook na de technische aanpassingen van de chatbot, van mening dat deze niet langer beschikbaar moet zijn?

Vraag 10
Bent u bereid om, net als in België en het Verenigd Koninkrijk, over te gaan tot het blokkeren van de AI-chatbot Grok? Welke andere ingrijpen heeft u tot uw beschikking?

Vraag 11
Steunt u de oproep van de Europese Commissie dat alle interne documenten en data gerelateerd aan de chatbot Grok moet worden vrijgegeven in het lopende onderzoek naar de contentmoderatie van X?⁴

Vraag 12
Kunt u de relevante toezichthouders, in dit geval de Autoriteit Consument & Markt en de Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens, vragen om hun reactie? Hebben zij voldoende mogelijkheden om toezicht te houden en te handhaven?

Vraag 13
Hoeveel klachten en meldingen zijn er gedaan door slachtoffers van seksuele deepfakes door Grok? Hoe wordt hier opvolging aan gegeven? Gebeurt dit altijd tijdig?

Vraag 14
Hoe is uw contact met X? Heeft u de zorgen over deepfakes al met X besproken? Zo ja, wanneer is dat gebeurd en wat waren de uitkomsten van deze gesprekken? Zo niet, kunt u dit zo spoedig mogelijk alsnog doen?

Vraag 15
Voldoen X en xAI naar uw weten aan de ethische- en transparantieverplichtingen van Nederlandse en Europese wet- en regelgeving? Welke gevolgen heeft het als dit niet het geval is?

Vraag 16
Behoren het verbieden van X of het vertrekken van overheidsorganisaties van de dienst tot de mogelijkheden als X stelselmatig de nationale en Europese wet- en regelgeving blijft overtreden?

Vraag 17
Kunt u deze vragen afzonderlijk van elkaar en zo snel mogelijk beantwoorden?

BREAKING: JOINT STATEMENT FROM REUTERS, BBC NEWS, ASSOCIATED PRESS & AFP. Warning that their staff face death by starvation in Gaza. Horrifying and unprecedented.
We are desperately concerned for our journalists in Gaza, who are increasingly unable to feed themselves and their families. For many months, these independent journalists have been the world's eyes and ears on the ground in Gaza. They are now facing the same dire circumstances as those they are covering.
Journalists endure many deprivations and hardships in warzones. We are deeply alarmed that the threat of starvation is now one of them.
We once again urge the Israeli authorities to allow journalists in and out of Gaza. It is essential that adequate food supplies reach the people there.
