The Supreme Court of Brazil has ordered the shutdown of Elon Musk’s social media platform X on Friday for refusing to comply with a court order.
The order by Justice Alexandre de Moraes gave internet service providers and app stores five days to block access to X. The judge also imposed a daily penalty of $8,900 for users in Brazil who use a virtual private network to evade the ban. In his decision, de Moraes said X will remain blocked until it complies with his orders.
