Brazil's top court chief justice Alexandre de Moraes lifted his ban on Elon Musk's X platform on Tuesday. The decision came after Musk bowed to the demands of the minister and the Supreme Court to take down certain user accounts, pay outstanding fines, and appoint a legal representative for X in the country, per Bloomberg.

"I hereby decree the end of the suspension and authorize the immediate return of the activities of X Brasil in national territory and order Anatel (National Telecommunications Agency) to adopt the necessary measures to implement the measure, communicating this to the Supreme Court within 24 (twenty-four) hours," wrote the minister, per Globo.

The battle between de Moraes and Musk dates back to August 8 when X announced the Brazilian judge had ordered accounts expressing certain views to be blocked on the platform in his country. While X initially complied, Musk stepped in and reversed the block, stating that his platform would not hinder free speech. In return, de Moraes began imposing hefty fines on X, even coming after Musk's other company Starlink by freezing its financial assets. X employees and legal representation were forced to flee the country or face arrest for failure to provide documents related to the accounts in question. On August 30, de Moraes officially blocked X in Brazil and threatened citizens with fines of around $9,000 per day for accessing the platform via VPN.
