SAO PAULO (AP) — Elon Musk’s satellite-based internet service provider Starlink backtracked Tuesday and said it will comply with a Brazilian Supreme Court justice’s order to block the billionaire’s social media platform, X.
Starlink said in a statement posted on X that it will heed Justice Alexandre de Moraes’ order despite him having frozen the company’s assets. Previously, it informally told the telecommunications regulator that it would not comply until de Moraes reversed course.
“Regardless of the illegal treatment of Starlink in freezing our assets, we are complying with the order to block access to X in Brazil,” the company statement said. “We continue to pursue all legal avenues, as are others who agree that @alexandre’s recent order violate the Brazilian constitution.”
You would ban the site, and any company refusing to ban the site (FREE SPEECH!!!) would then also be banned.
But that doesn’t fix the issue. They switch sites. You have to ban the internet.
And yet, somehow, governments do manage to block it without banning the internet. It’s a miracle! Governments must be magic!
And yet, even after being blocked, the issue persists elsewhere. Nothing is solved! Go go government bullshit!
“It’s everywhere you look! I can’t open a single folder on my computer without finding more of it!”
What was your location again?
You just resort to personal insults when you’ve been beat.
Been beat? You didn’t even make an argument, just assumed nonsense was true.
Does it exist? Yes. Is it everywhere? Hardly. Does the ban significantly reduce access and availability? Yes.
Au revoir, Felicia
You just resort to running away when you’ve been beat.
