Elon Musk is clashing with a supreme-court judge in Brazil.


 


Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered X to block accounts related to his misinformation investigation.


 


Another day, another feud for Elon Musk.


 


 


 


A clash between Musk and a judge on Brazil's supreme court came to a head over the weekend, as Justice Alexandre de Moraes opened an investigation into the X owner over whether he obstructed justice.


 


 


 


Musk, for his part, alleged de Moraes was betraying the Brazilian Constitution and said he should resign or be impeached.


 


 


 


De Moraes had previously ordered that certain accounts on X be blocked in Brazil amid an investigation into "digital militias" that he alleged were spreading fake news and threats against Brazil's supreme court during the reign of President Jair Bolsonaro, The Associated Press reported.


 


On Saturday, X's Global Government Affairs account confirmed it had been forced to block "certain popular accounts in Brazil" — and Musk personally called out de Moraes.


 


 


 


But that same day, Musk said X would not block the accounts in question.


 


 


 


"We are lifting all restrictions," he wrote on X. "This judge has applied massive fines, threatened to arrest our employees and cut off access to X in Brazil. As a result, we will probably lose all revenue in Brazil and have to shut down our office there. But principles matter more than profit."


 


 


 


On Sunday, Musk added that he would share all of de Moraes' demands publicly and encouraged users to download a virtual private network.
