The court is doing its job, X is not. Businesses should adhere to the country's law. They can't pick and choose what to obey or not obey and not expect to take the heat. Elon Musk's decision to ignore the order was childish and only caused more harm to itself.
Oh no, it's not. As much as I hate Elon Musk, Alexandre de Moraes is a criminal. Some of the accounts he is trying to ban are specifically talking about some of his criminal activities. He unconstitutionally blocked Starlink some days ago because Elon Musk is part of the board. He ordered the blocking of ALL VPN services because he didn't want people to access Twitter. That creates a TERRIBLE precedent, even if you agree that what he was doing in the first place was right. He already blocked Telegram and have been censoring everyone who says anything against him. As a Brazilian, it's really conflicting to see all this going on. Elon Musk is an idiot and Moraes is a criminal.
