Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered the country’s telecom agency to unblock X after the company complied with court orders and paid its fines.
On August 30th, Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes handed down an order to ban X, notifying the country’s communications agency to limit access to the platform. Now, on October 8th, after X complied with court orders to ban certain accounts and paid its fines, Justice de Moraes has ordered ISPs to unblock X.
The Brazilian justice, who has led the country’s efforts against misinformation, initially opened an investigation into X in April after Musk said he reactivated accounts the platform was ordered to block.
Musk later closed X’s offices in Brazil over claims de Moraes threatened to arrest the company’s local legal representative if the platform didn’t follow “censorship orders.”
