Brazil is Watch Sexy urban legends season 1 episode 8serious about this ban of Elon Musk's X (formerly Twitter).

After banning the social network within its borders, one nugget in the New York Times' report about the story stands out: Anyone who tries to access X in Brazil using technical workarounds like VPNs will be fined substantially. To be more specific, those people could be fined as much as nearly $9,000 per dayfor using X in Brazil.

While a large country's supreme court banning a social network may sound excessive (as if such a thing could happen here), the story of how it happened doesn't exactly paint X and Musk in a positive light. Brazil's government ordered the site to stop hosting disinformation, Musk called it "censorship," and eventually things escalated from there. On Wednesday of this week, X (which shut down its Brazil operations earlier this year) was ordered by Brazil to appoint a legal representative in the country within 24 hours; X did not do this. As such, X is now banned in Brazil.

• Elon Musk's AI facility is reportedly operating gas turbines without a permit
• Elon Musk's decision to privatize likes on X has made the platform worse
• Elon Musk's X is the 'home of social media piracy,' sports leagues say

And if you try to get around that ban, you'll have to pay up. Be careful.
