Brazil's Supreme Court cleared X to resume service in the country on Tuesday, after the social media platform reversed course and started complying with court rulings billionaire owner Elon Musk had previously vowed to resist.

In the decision, Moraes said X had met all the necessary requirements to start operating again in the country.

Musk, who had denounced the orders as censorship and called Moraes a "dictator," started to reverse his position in recent weeks, with his social media network blocking accounts flagged by the court, tapping a local representative and paying pending fines.

"We showed the world that here our laws should be respected, by whomever it may be," Filho said in a statement.
