Brazilian authorities may soon lift the ban on Elon Musk’s social media platform X. The company met the final requirement to return online on October 7 after paying a fine of 28.6 million Brazilian reais (about $5.5 million). In late August, Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court suspended X for failing to comply with an investigation into the spread of misinformation in the country.
X has appointed a new legal representative in accordance with local regulations and has blocked user accounts that spread misinformation. The platform’s return to users in Brazil depends on the recommendation of the Brazilian Attorney General and the ruling of Judge Moraes. Share your views in the comments!
