The social media giant says it refused to comply with a judge’s order to appoint a legal representative.
A Brazilian Supreme Court judge has ordered the “immediate and complete suspension” of Elon Musk’s X, formerly Twitter, in the country.
In a statement, Alexandre de Moraes said the social media platform will be banned until X complies with all court orders and pays existing fines.
Justice Moraes, who has been involved in a long-running row with X, had given the social media platform 24 hours to name a new legal representative or face suspension, with a deadline of Thursday evening.
