Brazilian judge suspends X platform after it refuses to name a legal representative

A Supreme Court justice in Brazil has ordered the suspension of a social media platform owned by Elon Musk. The order came after Musk refused to name a legal representative in Brazil. The dispute between the two men has been ongoing for several months and revolves around issues such as free speech, far-right accounts, and misinformation. The justice had previously warned Musk that the platform could be blocked if he did not comply with the order. Musk accused the justice of destroying free speech and criticized the Brazilian regime. Brazil is an important market for the social media platform, which has seen a decline in advertisers since Musk acquired it.
