This marks the first time a major European nation has criminally investigated AI algorithm manipulation as a tool for foreign interference through social media. The investigation's dual focus on both algorithmic alteration and organized data extraction suggests a new understanding of how digital systems could be weaponized to influence national sovereignty - a capability not present in previous social media investigations.

📰 What Happened
French authorities have initiated a criminal investigation into X (formerly Twitter) over alleged algorithmic manipulation enabling foreign interference. The Paris prosecutor's office confirmed the national gendarmerie's cybercrime unit will investigate both the platform and connected individuals for 'alteration of automated data processing' and 'fraudulent data extraction'. The probe stems from February reports by a French cybersecurity manager and MP Éric Bothorel regarding algorithm manipulation concerns.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The French investigation into X's algorithmic manipulation converges with three prophetic streams: 1) The emergence of AI-driven control systems capable of mass manipulation, 2) The cybercrime unit's focus on 'organized groups' points to hidden power structures developing global influence capabilities, and 3) The combination of algorithm alteration and data extraction creates unprecedented ability to identify and target specific populations. This aligns with Revelation's warning of systems that can control who can 'buy or sell' and Daniel's prophecy of knowledge increasing in the last days.
