In the days after the US Department of Justice (DOJ) published 3.5 million pages of documents related to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, multiple users on X have asked Grok to “unblur” or remove the black boxes covering the faces of children and women in images that were meant to protect their privacy.

I doubt any of these people are accessing X over Tor. Their accounts and IPs are known.

In a sane world, they'd be prosecuted.
In MAGAMERICA, they are protected by the Spirit of Epstein

What crime do you imagine they would be committing?

I don't know what they hope to gain by seeing the kid's face, unless they think they can match it up with an Epstein family member or something (seems unlikely to be their goal).
