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.”
I agree. The government should make it illegal for the people to use, and enforce that law. The sky internet is available to all.
You’ve completely lost the plot.
You never had a point.
Just because you refuse to listen to anyone it doesn’t mean they don’t have a point.
Just because I refuse to agree doesn’t mean I’m not listening.
Yes we know you don’t agree with the law. Blahblahblah
Do you agree with all laws?
You’ve said you do agree, and you’ve said you don’t agree to the same exact law. You can’t even concern troll consistently.
Better luck next time.
To clarify:
I agree that they can make a law, although I disagree with it.
I don’t agree that they can force starlink to do anything, because it operates outside of their jurisdiction—space.
They can tell their citizens not to use it, but enforcing that is on them.
