Ultimatum issued
Brazil threatens to block Elon Musk’s X
In the dispute over content moderation and freedom of expression, Brazil's Supreme Court has given Elon Musk an ultimatum for his social media platform X. According to a court ruling published on Wednesday, Musk must appoint a legal representative for his messaging service within 24 hours, otherwise it could be blocked.
In his ruling, judge Alexandre de Moraes pointed out that under Brazilian internet law, companies that disregard the country's laws or the confidentiality of private information must expect their activities to be temporarily suspended.
Earlier this month, X announced that it would cease its operations in Brazil and lay off its employees due to Moraes' "censorship orders". X did not initially respond to a Reuters request for comment.
