X has appointed Rachel de Oliveira Conceicao as its new legal representative in Brazil, fulfilling a legal requirement for foreign companies operating in the country.
This move comes after the company closed its offices in Brazil in mid-August, leaving it without a designated representative.
The lack of a legal representative led Brazil’s top court to order mobile and internet providers to block X due to the company’s noncompliance with local regulations.
This situation escalated from a dispute between Elon Musk and Justice Alexandre de Moraes concerning adherence to court orders related to hate speech.
In light of the recent developments, X’s legal team has confirmed that the company is taking steps to comply with the court’s directives, which include removing specific content flagged by authorities.
