In the midst of an ongoing dispute between Elon Musk and Brazil's top judicial authorities regarding the blocking of certain accounts on X, the tech mogul urged users in the country to utilize virtual private networks (VPNs) to access the social media platform.
Musk, addressing his followers on X, recommended downloading a VPN app to ensure continued access to the platform. "Using a VPN is straightforward... People value transparency," expressed the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX.
The specific accounts targeted for blocking by Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, as well as Musk's response, have not been disclosed by either party.
In an earlier response to the Supreme Court's directive to block specific high-profile X accounts, Musk stated his willingness to remove "all restrictions," even if it meant closing their Brazilian office.
Expressing his discontent with the judge's actions, Musk questioned, "Why are you doing this @alexandre?"
Subsequently, in a follow-up statement, Musk declared, "We are removing all restrictions. This judge has imposed substantial fines, threatened our employees with arrest, and disrupted X access in Brazil."
Acknowledging the potential financial repercussions, Musk noted, "Consequently, we may forfeit all revenue in Brazil and be compelled to shutter our operations there. However, principles outweigh profits."
