Ridgewood NJ, in a significant ruling, a five-member panel of Brazil’s Supreme Court unanimously voted to uphold a nationwide ban on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter). The decision came after Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered the ban on Friday due to the platform’s failure to appoint a local legal representative, as required by Brazilian law. This ruling extends the ban, which will remain in place until X complies with the legal requirement and pays over $3 million in outstanding fines.
