Brazil's top court orders X not to circumvent ban at risk of daily fine

Quick Summary:

BRASILIA : Brazil's Supreme Court ordered Elon Musk-owned social media platform X not to try to circumvent a previous ruling suspending the platform in the country, at risk of a daily fine of 5 million reais ($921,726.95), a court decision showed Thursday.

A 5 million-real fine has been already imposed because of that, according to the decision.

X became accessible to many users in Brazil on Wednesday as an update to its communications network circumvented the court-ordered block.
