Get ready for a hefty fine if you try to access Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter) in Brazil.
The Brazilian government is cracking down hard on anyone using technical workarounds like VPNs to access X within its borders. Those caught could face fines of up to nearly $9,000 per day. Ouch!
So, what led to this extreme measure? It all started with Brazil ordering X to stop hosting disinformation. Musk cried “censorship,” tensions rose, and now X is officially banned in Brazil.
Behind the Ban
- Reports suggest Elon Musk’s AI facility in Brazil is operating gas turbines without a permit.
- Privatizing likes on X has only made the platform worse, according to critics.
- Sports leagues are calling X the ‘home of social media piracy.’
Think twice before trying to bypass the ban. It’s not worth the risk!
