Brazil judge orders suspension of Elon Musk's X

Brazil has starting blocking Elon Musk’s social media platform X, making it largely inaccessible on both the web and through mobile apps after the billionaire failed to name a legal representative in the country. The move, which escalates a monthslong feud between Musk and a Brazilian Supreme Court justice over free speech, far-right accounts and misinformation, came after Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered the suspension on Friday. To block X, Brazil’s telecommunications regulator, Anatel, told internet service providers to suspend users’ access to the social media platform. As of midnight local time, major operators had begun doing so.
