Brazil court says Elon Musk must pay $1.9 million to lift ban on X

Elon Musk will have to pay an additional 10.3 million reais ($1.9 million) to reinstate social media platform X in Brazil, according to a Supreme Court filing Friday.

The penalty was ordered by top court Justice Alexandre de Moraes as punishment for X having become accessible after the ban order on Aug. 30, including through Musk’s satellite internet provider Starlink.
