Brazil: Supreme Court upholds judge’s censorship order vs. X

Source: Axios

“Brazil’s Supreme Court on Monday upheld a decision to ban Elon Musk’s X nationwide, after the platform formerly known as Twitter refused to comply with orders by the country’s top judge. The unanimous ruling by the five justices comes as Musk accuses Brazil’s top judge of acting as a ‘dictator’ for suspending X in Latin America’s largest nation over misinformation concerns and for failing to appoint a legal representative for the social media platform in the country. … [Justice Alexandre de] Moraes modified his order to warn that people who used VPNs for X to ‘engage in conduct that defrauds the court decision’ would be fined.” (09/03/24)
