SOCIAL media platform X returned to Brazil on Wednesday after a blackout of more than a month, due to a clash between owner Elon Musk and Brazilian authorities.

Internet service providers began restoring access to the platform after Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes lifted X’s suspension on Tuesday.

Justice de Moraes had ordered the shutdown of X on August 30 during a dispute with Mr Musk over free speech, far-right accounts and misinformation.
