Musk’s Starlink Defies Order to Block X in Brazil

Published On Sep 1, 2024, 11:43 PM

Elon Musk's Starlink service, which has 250,000 customers in Brazil, is refusing to comply with a Brazilian court order to block access to his social network, X (formerly Twitter). Despite fines and legal threats, Musk has escalated the conflict with Brazilian authorities and suggested that Brazilians use workarounds to access X. The Brazilian Supreme Court had ordered the freezing of Starlink's assets due to non-compliance, highlighting the ongoing dispute and the implications for millions of Brazilian users.

Starlink's refusal to comply with Brazilian court orders and the freezing of its assets indicate ongoing legal challenges that could affect its future operations in Brazil. This situation might deter investment and negatively impact customer confidence, even though the service has a solid user base.
