Brazil Supreme Court Upholds X Platform Ban
News summary

Brazil's Supreme Court has unanimously upheld a ban on Elon Musk's social media platform X (formerly Twitter) for failing to remove misinformation and appoint a local legal representative, leading to significant consequences for the platform and its users. Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who spearheaded the ban, also imposed fines on individuals attempting to bypass the ban via VPNs. Musk has criticized the decision as 'censorship' and called for de Moraes' imprisonment. In response to the ban, decentralized platform Bluesky has seen a rapid surge in Brazilian users, gaining one million new users in three days. The court's decision significantly impacts X's presence in Brazil, a major market with approximately 22 million users.
