X, the social media platform previously known as Twitter, did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A report by Brazil's federal police seen by Reuters on Friday showed accounts on X that local courts had ordered blocked were still active on the platform by early April, contradicting a previous statement by the company.
"Representatives for social network 'X' are requested to comment on the non-compliances highlighted in the report presented by the police," Moraes wrote in the decision.
