Brazil’s national telecom regulator Anatel informed the Supreme Court on Thursday (Sep. 5), that Starlink has complied with the order to suspend access to the X social network. Both companies are owned by billionaire Elon Musk.
According to Anatel, all 224,458 accesses in the country have been blocked. The blockade was enforced at 18:06 (Brasília time) on Wednesday (4).
Starlink provides internet services to rural areas across the country and holds contracts with public institutions, including the Armed Forces and electoral courts.
