operaciones en Brasil, afirmando que el ministro del Supremo Tribunal Federal
brasileño Alexandre de Moraes amenazó con arrestar a su representante legal en
Brasil si no cumplía ciertas órdenes.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">Social media platform X reported on
Saturday that it will shut down its operations in Brazil, claiming that
Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes threatened to arrest its
legal representative in Brazil if he did not comply with certain orders.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">X está retirando a todo el personal que le queda en Brasil “con efecto
inmediato”, aunque la empresa señaló que el servicio seguirá disponible para
los usuarios en Brasil. La empresa no aclaró cómo podía afirmar que suspendía
operaciones al tiempo que seguía ofreciendo servicio a los brasileños.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">X is withdrawing all remaining staff
in Brazil "effective immediately," though the company noted that the
service will remain available to users in Brazil. The company did not clarify
how it could claim to suspend operations while continuing to offer service to
Brazilians.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">A principios de este año, la empresa tuvo un enfrentamiento con De
Moraes sobre la libertad de expresión, cuentas de ultraderecha e información
falsa difundida a través de X. La empresa indicó que sus órdenes más recientes
equivalían a censura, y compartió una copia del documento en X.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">Earlier this year, the company had a
run-in with De Moraes over freedom of expression, far-right accounts and false
information spread through X. The company said its most recent orders amounted
to censorship, and shared a copy of the document in X.

respondido los correos electrónicos de The Associated Press para
dar sus comentarios o confirmar la veracidad del documento.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">As of Saturday, the Supreme Court's
press office had not responded to emails from The Associated Press seeking comment or confirming
the document's veracity.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">En Estados Unidos, la libertad de expresión es un derecho constitucional
más permisivo que en muchos países, como Brasil, donde De Moraes ordenó en
abril una investigación contra el director general de X, Elon
Musk, por la difusión de noticias falsas difamatorias y otra indagación sobre
posible obstrucción, incitación y organización delictiva.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">In the United States, freedom of
expression is a more permissive constitutional right than in many countries,
such as Brazil, where De Moraes in April ordered an investigation against the CEO of X, Elon Musk,
for the dissemination of defamatory fake news and another inquiry into possible
obstruction, incitement and criminal organization.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">Desde hace un tiempo, la derecha política de Brasil ha caracterizado a
De Moraes como alguien que excede sus límites para frenar la libre expresión y
emprender una persecución política.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">For some time now, Brazil's
political right has characterized De Moraes as someone who exceeds his limits
to curb free expression and engage in political persecution.

sociales a sus aliados de ultraderecha u ordenar el arresto de los
simpatizantes que irrumpieron en las sedes gubernamentales el 8 de enero de
2023, De Moraes ha perseguido agresivamente a aquellos que, en su opinión,
socavan la joven democracia de Brasil.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">Whether investigating former
President Jair Bolsonaro, expelling his far-right allies from social media, or
ordering the arrest of supporters who stormed government headquarters on Jan.
8, 2023, de Moraes has aggressively targeted those he believes undermine
Brazil's young democracy.<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">“De Moraes ha decidido amenazar a nuestro personal en Brasil en lugar de

“absolutista de la libre expresión” y propietario de X, dijo que De Moraes “es
una desgracia absoluta para la justicia”.<o:p></o:p><p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.25in; text-align: justify; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">In a message posted Saturday
morning, Musk, a self-proclaimed "free speech absolutist" and owner
of X, said De Moraes "is an absolute disgrace to justice."
