Twitter has accounts that Brazil says violates Brazilian law.
Brazil took steps to shut down those accounts in Brazil.
Twitter refused to cooperate, going as far as to fire all of its Brazilian staff, so that it can’t be reached by the Brazilian courts.
The Brazilian courts ordered all of Twitter be blocked until they comply with local law that they designate a corporate representative who can be served by court processes.
Brazilian ISPs complied with the court order to block Twitter.
Starlink did not comply, and Brazilian courts froze SpaceX’s Brazilian assets, including bank accounts, and started making moves towards de-licensing Starlink, including its 23 ground stations located in Brazil.
The issue escalated to the full Brazilian Supreme Court, who ruled that the assets should remain frozen until Starlink starts complying with court orders.
Now Starlink says it will comply with the court order.

Thank you 🙏
