Brazil Threatens to Ban Elon Musk’s X

Published On Aug 28, 2024, 9:55 PM

Brazil’s Supreme Court has given Elon Musk 24 hours to appoint a legal representative for his social media platform, X, or face a ban in Brazil. The ruling comes after Musk closed the X office in Brazil in protest against court orders to suspend certain accounts, which have been linked to political right-wing figures and alleged misinformation. This situation marks a critical juncture for Musk as he navigates issues related to content moderation and censorship on his platform, while also facing significant challenges to regain advertising revenue.
