The post Elon Musk’s X BANNED In Brazil After A Supreme Court Ruling! appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
On Friday, Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ruled that internet service providers must block X in the country of about 215 million people. The Judge ordered the platform’s suspension after a months-long standoff over disinformation in Brazil. Local media reported that anyone who uses a VPN to circumvent the ban could be subject to a fine amounting to 50,000 reais ($8,900). Musk shut down X’s office in Brazil earlier this month to protest against court orders to remove certain accounts that allegedly spread misinformation. Moraes had given it 24 hours to name a legal representative in the country or risk having its service suspended.
