In the latest round of the dispute between Elon Musk and Brazil’s top court, a senior judge has accused X of a “willful, illegal and persistent” effort to circumvent a court-ordered block – and imposed a fine of R$5m ($921,676) for each day the social network remains online.
The social media platform formerly known as Twitter, which has been banned by court order since 30 August, on Wednesday became accessible to many users in Brazil after an update that used cloud services offered by third parties, such as Cloudflare, Fastly and Edgeuno.
This allowed some Brazilian users to access X without the need for a VPN – which is also prohibited in the country.
Late on Wednesday, X described its reappearance in Brazil as an “inadvertent and temporary service restoration to Brazilian users”.
But the influential supreme court justice Alexandre de Moraes – who ordered the original ban as part of an attempt to crack down on anti-democratic, far-right voices – on Thursday described the move as a deliberate attempt “to circumvent the court’s blocking order”.
You are absolutely right. Brazil is not banning the internet. Reading comprehension is not your strong suit.
Also, if the only way you can feel like you are “winning” a discussion is by changing what other people say, then you simply are not winning at all. You are writing fan fiction about yourself to try to feel clever. It backfired.
You literally described your own actions.
Love how you made it personal when someone responded rationally to you. If you can’t take that, you probably should not engage with other humans.
Yeah, commenting on someone’s comment they made about my comment isn’t personal. It’s interesting how you know you dislike what I said but can’t come up with anything to actually say about it. Maybe you should take that as an indication that you don’t actually know why you parrot the things you do.
lol wow
Stop pushing your personal issues on others
