Listen to This Article A representative for Space Exploration Technologies Corp., as the company is formally known, didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
The new travel limit is the latest fallout in a months-long feud between Musk, the world’s richest person, and Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who is spearheading efforts to combat fake news and hate speech that he says are harming Brazil’s democracy. Moraes has moved to ban Musk’s X social media platform — formerly known as Twitter — and blocked bank accounts of SpaceX’s Starlink satellite unit to enforce the payment of fines imposed on the X platform.
“This order is based on an unfounded determination that Starlink should be responsible for the fines levied — unconstitutionally — against X,” Starlink said last week, adding it intends “to address the matter legally.”
It’s standard for companies to review their security protocols and caution employees from traveling to certain areas depending on changing dynamics with customers and foreign governments.
The Supreme Court’s order focused on two companies registered in Brazil: Starlink Brazil Holding Ltda and Starlink Brazil Servicos de Internet Ltda.
