After the social network paid the fines and appointed a legal representative, Judge Alexandre de Moraes decreed the “end of the suspension” of X in Brazil.
OX (formerly Twitter) returns to Brazil. The judge of the Federal Supreme Court (STF), Alexandre de Moraes, decided to unblock the social network owned by Elon Musk in Brazilian territory. In a note cited by G1, the legal representative wrote that he decrees the “end of the suspension” and authorizes “the immediate return of X Brazil’s activities in national territory.”
Judge Alexandre de Moraes asked, for this reason, Anatel (the National Telecommunications Agency of Brazil) to “adopt the necessary measures to implement the measure.”
Alexandre de Moraes ordered the suspension of X in the country on August 30. after owner and tycoon Elon Musk breached an appointment orderwithin 24 hours, a legal representative of the platform in Brazil. OX would be suspended in Brazil “until all court orders issued in the present case are complied with, the fines are duly paid and the natural or legal person representing the national territory is appointed before the court,” the judge’s decision reads. .
The fines were related to an investigation into the spread of fake news in which the social network is suspected of having committed crimes of obstruction of justice, criminal organization and incitement to crime.

Even so, the legal representatives of the social network deposited the total amount of the fines in the wrong bank account and X remained blocked in Brazil until this Tuesday, the day the situation was regularized.
