Starlink stood up to the Brazilian government. Despite Alexander de Moraes’s unlawful freezing of its bank accounts, the company continued to provide service to its 250,000+ customers. No longer. He had to shut it down after Monday’s decision in the Brazilian court.
On Monday, the Brazilian Supreme Court panel unanimously upheld a ban on the nationwide social media platform X.
Mr. Musk criticized Justice Alexandre de Moraes for his ruling, describing it as an authoritarian move.
The order came down because X didn’t get a lawyer. However, the last one he had was threatened with prison and had her accounts frozen.

The ruling will stay in place until he names a representative.
The Brazilian people were threatened with prison if they used a VPN to look at X. Musk wouldn’t want people to be put in danger over X. The Court is also demanding outstanding fines, which have been more than $3 million so far.
