Conservative Lawmaker Marcel Van Hattem Defies Communist Tyrant Alexandre de Moraes – Will Continue to Use X Despite Imposed R$ 50,000 Fine… Update: Even Lula’s Socialist Party Continues to Tweet!
As reported yesterday – In a new chapter on escalating authoritarianism in Brazil, Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes suspended Twitter/X in the country on Friday.
Moraes summoned Elon Musk directly on the social network, demanding he appoint a representative of the big tech company in Brazil. However, Musk did not comply. Amidst the case, Moraes ordered the blocking of Starlink accounts in Brazil—also owned by Musk—under the pretext of ensuring payment of fines levied against X.
The justice ordered Brazil’s National Telecommunications Agency to be immediately notified and take all necessary steps to halt X’s operations in the country.
Moraes also issued orders to Apple and Google, given that their mobile devices run on iOS and Android operating systems.
