Elon Musk's X/Twitter
New X version bypasses Brazil's block
An automatic update of the X app includes a solution to bypass Brazil's ban on the app, reports AFP.
X was blocked nationwide on August 31 after the company ignored a court order to appoint a legal representative in the country within 24 hours. Fines of the equivalent of SEK 90,000 per day were then introduced for those who use VPNs to circumvent the block.
The decision has drawn harsh criticism, especially from the right, led by ex-president Jair Bolsonaro. Tens of thousands demonstrated against the blockade on 7 September.
Brazil has also frozen bank accounts linked to the Starlink internet service, which is provided by Musk's company Space X.
The com radios are said to have been purchased by Hezbollah five months ago, around the same time as the pagers that exploded on Tuesday, a security source told Reuters.
