X, the former Twitter, announced that it was “effectively immediately” terminating its remaining employees in Brazil, despite the fact that the service will remain accessible there.
The business, which is owned by billionaire Elon Musk, has already argued with the accused justice, Alexandre de Moraes, about far-right narratives, free expression, and false information about X.
April saw Mr. de Moraes request an inquiry into CEO Elon Musk’s alleged spread of false information that was intended to be defamatory, as well as a second investigation into potential obstruction, incitement, and criminal organization.
X claimed that his most recent directives amounted to censorship, and a copy of the purported document in question was published by an account purporting to be X’s worldwide government affairs.
The press office of the Supreme Court has not yet responded or attested to the document’s authenticity.
On Saturday night, Mr. Musk made a number of posts about Mr. de Moraes on X, one of which compared the justice system to Voldemort, the villain from Harry Potter.
