Elon Musk announced the closure of his social network X's Brazilian office due to a Brazilian Supreme Court judge's order to suspend certain accounts or face legal consequences. The feud between Musk and the judge stems from the judge's orders to suspend accounts spreading content deemed to threaten Brazilian democracy, particularly those of right-wing supporters of former President Jair Bolsonaro. Musk has criticized the judge's actions as censorship and has called for his removal. The closure of X's Brazilian operation could lead to further conflict with the judge, potentially resulting in the blocking of the service in Brazil. Musk has expressed his willingness to stand up against the judge, even at the expense of X's business.
