Elon Musk’s social media platform, X, is taking steps to comply with Brazil’s Supreme Court in an effort to lift its ban in the country. The platform was banned in Brazil in August for failing to moderate hate speech and meet court orders. The court had ordered the company to appoint a legal representative and block certain accounts deemed harmful to Brazil’s democracy. X’s legal team has now agreed to follow these directives, appointing Rachel de Oliveira Villa Nova Conceicao as its representative and committing to block the required accounts.

Despite previous defiance and criticism of the court’s orders by Musk and his company, X has shifted its stance. The court gave X five days to submit proof of the appointment and two days to confirm that the necessary accounts had been blocked. Once all compliance is verified, the court will decide whether to extend or lift the ban on X in Brazil.

Additionally, X has agreed to pay fines exceeding $3 million and begin blocking specific accounts involved in a hate speech investigation. This represents a shift in the company’s stance, which had previously denounced the court orders as censorship. X briefly became accessible in Brazil last week after a network update bypassed the ban, though the court continues to enforce its block until all conditions are met.
