Elon Musk's SpaceX’s Starlink will block social network X in Brazil following a Supreme Court order. The court froze Starlink's assets after X defied requests to suspend accounts allegedly threatening democratic institutions ahead of Brazil’s elections. A takedown request involved a senator who is under investigation for his alleged role in coup plots and efforts to sabotage Justice de Moraes. The social network also declined to appoint a legal representative in Brazil, as required by federal law. Musk publicly criticized the court's top justice and has threatened retaliation if Brazil doesn’t return Starlink’s assets.
