Brazil's Supreme Court Orders X Suspension
News summary

Brazil's Supreme Court has ordered Elon Musk's social media platform X to suspend its operations in the country or face a daily fine of approximately $900,000. The court's ruling follows X's recent restoration of service, which the court views as a deliberate attempt to evade a previous ban. Justice Alexandre de Moraes criticized X for its 'unlawful, persistent and intentional' disregard for judicial orders, indicating that the platform had circumvented the ban through a software update. Despite X's claim that the reactivation was an 'inadvertent and temporary' effect of a server change, the court has imposed a daily fine of 5 million reais until compliance is achieved. The situation has led to some Brazilian users regaining access to the platform, sparking mixed reactions. This ongoing conflict reflects the tensions between X and Brazilian authorities over compliance with legal restrictions.
