Billionaire Elon Musk invited X users to follow a new account created to reveal the "abuses of Brazilian law committed" by Supreme Court Judge Alexandre de Moraes, who a day earlier ordered a nationwide suspension of the social media site after Musk failed to name a legal representative in the country.
Reposting content from the freshly created @AlexandreFiles, which accumulated more than 171,000 followers in nearly eight hours after the first message, Musk announced the launching of "the daily data dump on the crimes" of Moraes, calling him a "fake "judge." "He can block this platform in Brazil, but he can’t stop the whole world from knowing his illegal, shameful & hypocritical deeds. Karma's a b*tch bro," he wrote.
In the account, a document that seems to be issued by the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court and signed by Moraes on August 8, orders that X must delete "in secret" eight profiles owned by politicians, personalities, and others which would signify a violation of Brazilian law.
