Elon Musk's social media platform X was taken offline again in Brazil following a Supreme Court ruling after it controversially resumed service. The platform was previously banned and had temporarily returned due to a software update using Cloudflare to evade blocks. The ban has led to Musk's assets being frozen to ensure fine payments and has fueled debates on freedom of expression.
Elon Musk's social media platform X was taken offline again in Brazil following a Supreme Court ruling, just a day after it controversially resumed service.
This suspension, overseen by Judge Alexandre de Moraes, follows X's failure to comply with court orders including the removal of disinformation and appointing a local legal representative.
The platform, formerly known as Twitter, was previously banned and had temporarily returned due to a software update using Cloudflare to evade blocks.
The ban has led to Musk's assets being frozen to ensure fine payments and has fueled debates on freedom of expression.
The legal row has seen Musk publicly criticizing Judge de Moraes.
X has over 22 million users in Brazil, and its unintentional return has been linked to an automatic updating mechanism.
