Reports indicate that users of platform X in Brazil are now able to access the platform normally, after previously being blocked by court order. However, this access was not restored by Brazilian authorities rescinding the block order, but rather because X altered their connection method.
Information from ABRINT, the association of internet service providers in Brazil, reveals that X updated their app, prompting users in Brazil to switch their connection method to Cloudflare. This change makes blocking more difficult, as it utilizes Dynamic IP addresses, potentially affecting other critical services also using Cloudflare.
Brazil boasts a significant user base for platform X, making it a key market for this social platform. Both X and Elon Musk have yet to comment on this news.
