Reuters reports that an order from the country’s Supreme Court Judge Alexandre de Moraes stated that the Elon Musk-owned social network could “immediately return to its activities in national territory” if it pays a fine of 10 million reais (around $1.9 million). X has been locked in a legal battle over Moraes’ attempt to block certain accounts that he accused of posting election misinformation. Moraes is telling the company to pay this additional fine after X seemed to circumvent the ban earlier this month and resume service in the country — a “coincidence” caused by X switching to Cloudflare infrastructure. X’s Global Government Affairs account seemed to acknowledge its acquiescence and claim that providing access to Brazilian users is essential to a thriving democracy.
