Brazil slaps Rs 7.7 cr fine on Elon Musk after X’s brief return despite ban

Elon Musk-owned ‘X’ (formerly Twitter) and Starlink, have been fined $920,000 (about Rs 7.7 crore) by a Brazilian court. This penalty, imposed on Thursday (September 19), comes after users in Brazil temporarily regained access to the platform despite an ongoing ban. According to a report by the BBC, the platform’s access was restored due to an unintended server switch.
