Elon Musk's social media platform X has landed a victory in its court battle against Australia’s eSafety Commissioner over footage of the Western Sydney church stabbing.

The Federal Court on Monday rejected the eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant’s application to extend an injunction that would have forced X to continue blocking content related to the incident.

Last month, Elon Musk argued taking down the videos globally would go against freedom of speech laws.

"Our concern is that if any country is allowed to censor content for all countries … then what is to stop any country from controlling the entire internet?" Mr Musk wrote on X.

People congratulated Mr Musk on Monday after the Federal Court sided with X.

Sky News Host Rowan Dean wrote on X, “Australia’s Labor government disgraced again as Federal Court denies Labor’s outrageous attempt to censor what everyday Australians can see on this magnificent platform to free speech – congrats.”

The case will return to court on Wednesday.
