Details

The country's Supreme Court has allowed billionaire Elon Musk's platform to resume operations, as the social network has complied with all court decisions.

Most users have already gained access to X, so the hashtag "we're back" is gaining popularity in Latin America. However, access is still limited for some Brazilians.

It is noted that it takes a little longer to fully unlock, in particular, it all depends on procedures performed by each Internet provider.

Addendum

Judge X has fulfilled all the necessary requirements to resume work in the country after the platform changed course and began to comply with the requirements of the country's legislation. 

According to the data platform Statista, Brazil is the sixth largest X market in the world, and as of April had about 21.5 million users.

Recall

Social Network X paid a fine of $5.24 million and applied to resume operations in Brazil. The platform was previously blocked for failing to comply with court orders to moderate content and appoint a representative.
