X (formerly Twitter) has begun blocking over 8,000 accounts in India following government orders, including accounts of global media and prominent users. The company disagrees with the move, calling it censorship, but is complying to avoid penalties. X urged affected users to seek legal help and explore court relief.
A Brazilian Supreme Court Judge asked X to block 5 accounts that called for violence against the President.
Elon Musk refused.
