TL;DR Summary

Elon Musk challenges a Brazilian Supreme Court justice's order to block certain accounts on his social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, and calls for the judge's resignation. Musk criticized the judge for violating the constitution and people of Brazil, and announced that X would lift all restrictions despite the judge's prohibition. Brazil's solicitor general criticized Musk's decision and called for regulation of social media networks to prevent foreign platforms from violating Brazilian laws. The Supreme Court had no comment on the matter, and the justice leading the investigation into an alleged coup attempt by former President Jair Bolsonaro is known for combating online misinformation in Brazil.
