Social media giant, X (formerly Twitter), has been forced to shell out an additional sum of $1.5 million fine to resume operations in Brazil.
The Brazilian Supreme Court shut down X nationwide because its owner would not designate a local representative for the site or abide by the court’s orders to suspend specific accounts.
The ban forced supporters of former Brazilian President, Jair Bolsonaro to organise rallies protesting against judge Alexandre de Moraes, who ordered the suspension of X as many users are unable to engage in the platform and even just see their feeds.
