Terrorists Are Paying for Check Marks on X, Report Says

X, a social media platform, is potentially violating U.S. sanctions by accepting payments for subscription accounts from terrorist organizations barred from doing business in the country, including Hezbollah leaders and Houthi groups.
This finding is part of a report that highlights the increasing use of technology by terrorist organizations.
The report suggests that these organizations are becoming more effective and harder to thwart due to their exploitation of new technologies.
The report also warns about the threat posed by the use of varied technologies for terrorist activities as they become cheaper and more readily available.
The report underscores the need for vigilance and innovative countermeasures to keep pace with the evolving threat landscape.
