Brazil’s Supreme Court has upheld a ban on the social media platform X due to its alleged failure to appoint a new legal representative in the country before a court-imposed deadline. The ban will remain in place after three out of five justices voted in favor. This action follows a dispute between Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes and X’s owner, Elon Musk, which began in April over the suspension of accounts allegedly spreading disinformation.
