SAO PAULO (AP) — Elon Musk’s satellite-based internet service provider Starlink backtracked Tuesday and said it will comply with a Brazilian Supreme Court justice’s order to block the billionaire’s social media platform, X.

Starlink said in a statement posted on X that it will heed Justice Alexandre de Moraes’ order despite him having frozen the company’s assets. Previously, it informally told the telecommunications regulator that it would not comply until de Moraes reversed course.

“Regardless of the illegal treatment of Starlink in freezing our assets, we are complying with the order to block access to X in Brazil,” the company statement said. “We continue to pursue all legal avenues, as are others who agree that @alexandre’s recent order violate the Brazilian constitution.”

    “It’s everywhere you look! I can’t open a single folder on my computer without finding more of it!”

    What was your location again?

        Been beat? You didn’t even make an argument, just assumed nonsense was true.

        Does it exist? Yes. Is it everywhere? Hardly. Does the ban significantly reduce access and availability? Yes.

              Look, the conversation was over when you started making personal attacks instead of staying on topic. It’s just the internet.

                The conversation was over when you kept insisting nothing could be done unless you ban the internet entirely, despite reality proving that wrong.

                    You knew I was being facetious—I hope.

                    Considering that was the only thing resembling an argument in your post, I guess that means the conversation was over when you immediately gave up on trying to defend your argument and only posting something facetious.

                    Strange how you post something completely facetious and that’s fine, I reply with something facetious and you cry foul and run away.
