Starlink, the satellite company controlled by SpaceX CEO and X owner Elon Musk, said it was complying with a Brazilian court order to block social media platform X in the country.
In a Sept. 3 X post, Starlink claimed that a court ruling suspending X in Brazil was “illegal,” explicitly targeting Alexandre de Moraes, one of the country’s Supreme Court Justices. On Aug. 30, Moraes ordered X suspended in Brazil after Musk refused to name a legal representative for the firm’s operations in the country — a decision later upheld by a panel of five Justices.
“Regardless of the illegal treatment of Starlink in freezing of our assets, we are complying with the order to block access to X in Brazil,” said Starlink. “We continue to pursue all legal avenues, as are others who agree that [Moraes’] recent orders violate the Brazilian constitution.”
