Elon Musk unlikely to change stance on X-blockade, expert tells CNN

Technology expert Arthur Igreja, in an interview with CNN Behind the Scenes stated that Elon Musk should not change his stance regarding the blocking of X (formerly Twitter) in Brazil.

According to Igreja, the billionaire will not only not comply with the court orders, but has also found ways to get around the restrictions imposed on the platform.

According to the expert, the fact that some people are still able to access X in Brazil shows that Musk is “doubling down on the bet”.

Igreja explains that the changes in access were not made by Anatel or internet providers, but by X itself, which changed the access routes to the platform.

Complex and dynamic scenario

Igreja highlights that the scenario has become even more complex with the use of technologies such as CloudFlare, which is used by several Brazilian government agencies, including GOV.br.

The expert warns that if this technology is also notified and taken offline, it could result in “real chaos on the Brazilian internet.” “In other words, X is not only not following orders, but has found a way to get back online,” he says.

He highlights that, although Anatel can block new IP ranges used by the platform, the scenario is dynamic and X can continue to find new ways to maintain access.

The expert concludes that there has been no movement on the part of X in recent days to reestablish its representation in Brazil or to comply with court orders.

“We have a much more complex scenario than we have had in recent weeks,” concludes Igreja, indicating that the dispute between the platform and Brazilian authorities is far from being resolved.
