Brazil Lifts Ban on Elon Musk's X After Compliance with Court Demands
Elon Musk's social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, has been cleared to resume operations in Brazil after a month-long suspension. This decision follows the platform's compliance with various demands set forth by the Brazilian Supreme Court, including the payment of fines totaling $5.2 million. The platform faced challenges in the reinstatement process, including an initial error when the fines were paid to the wrong bank account, which delayed the outcome. However, after addressing these issues and complying with court orders, X is now allowed to return, marking the end of a tense standoff regarding disinformation and regulatory compliance in the region.
