There is an escalating tension between Elon Musk and Brazil involved with X, a platform Musk invested in. This comes as Brazil's top court orders a nationwide suspension of the platform amidst a free speech dispute, causing outage, disrupting connectivity for over 20 million users, and causing public unrest. This follows Musk's defiance of court orders to name a legal representative for the platform. Despite this, Musk has staged a pushback against this block and has even slammed the Brazilian judge overseeing the case. Brazil's response has included freezing of Starlink's financial assets and the threat of $8,900 daily fines for anybody accessing X. Meanwhile, an unrelated Texas judge ruled that a lawsuit against X by Media Matters can proceed to trial. Amidst these happenings, ex-labor secretary Robert Reich and others echo that Musk's behavior is 'out of control,' and enforcement actions, possibly threatening arrest, should be applied to control his actions. Twitter investors, particularly in Musk, have seen billions in devaluation.
