BRAZIL’S SUPREME COURT ISSUES DEATH SENTENCE TO ELON MUSK’S X
In a shocking move, Brazil’s top judge has threatened to shut down Elon Musk’s X social media platform if it doesn’t appoint a legal representative in the country within 24 hours. This is the latest salvo in a bitter battle between the billionaire and the Latin American nation.
X: THE NEW TWITTER
Just days ago, X vowed to close its operations in Brazil, leaving its estimated 20 million active users in the country in the dark. But the supreme court has other plans. In a scathing rebuke, the court has ordered X to comply with Brazilian law, which requires representation in the country.
MUSK’S REACTION
Musk has been defiant in the face of the court’s demands, calling the decision to close X’s office in Brazil "difficult". But the court is not backing down. In a bold move, the supreme court has launched an investigation against Musk, threatening to arrest his legal representative in Brazil if they don’t comply with the court’s orders.
A CLASH OF TITANS
This is not the first time that Musk and the Brazilian supreme court have clashed. In recent months, the court has issued a series of rulings suspending social media accounts and forcing the removal of posts. Musk has challenged these orders, leading to a heated battle between the two sides.
THE STAKES ARE HIGH
The stakes are high in this battle. If X is shut down, it could have far-reaching consequences for the platform’s users and the broader social media landscape. But the Brazilian supreme court is determined to protect its citizens from the spread of fake news and hate speech.
