The ongoing conflict between Brazil and the social media platform X, owned by Elon Musk, is far from resolved. Recent developments suggest that the situation has taken another turn.
A few weeks ago, Brazilian Supreme Court justice Alexandre de Moraes mandated that X remove content deemed as misinformation. Despite the court’s order, Musk initially resisted compliance, leading to Brazil enforcing a nationwide ban on the platform. However, just last week, Musk took steps to comply by removing the contentious accounts and appointing a legal representative for Brazil.

X is reportedly losing users across various regions, including the U.S., UK, and EU, according to its own data.
Following these developments, X reportedly requested Brazil to lift the imposed ban. Despite this, the platform remains inaccessible in the country. The Brazilian Supreme Court has stated that X must pay an additional $5 million in fines for resuming its services, as reported recently.
X has yet to publicly address the issue, but sources indicate that the platform is likely to proceed with the payment of the fines.
