X’s Grok image-edit blocker falls short of stopping edits

TL;DR Summary
X’s new Grok image-edit blocker in the iOS app claims it can “block modifications by Grok,” but tests show it only prevents tagging Grok in replies and some edit instructions, not preventing Grok-driven edits to images. The toggle is hard to find and has significant limitations, with paid subscribers still able to edit images via Grok, leaving broader manipulation risks unresolved.
