Brazil’s Supreme Court has upheld a ban on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
A majority of three out of five justices have already voted in favour of the measure, meaning the ban will stay in place even if the two remaining justices were to vote against it.
X has been suspended in Brazil since the early hours of Saturday after it failed to appoint a new legal representative in the country before a court-imposed deadline.
It is the culmination of a feud between Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes and X’s owner Elon Musk which began in April, when the judge ordered the suspension of dozens of accounts for allegedly spreading disinformation.
