Elon Musk rails against Brazilian judge and initiates investigation. Judge Alexandre de Moraes of the Brazilian Supreme Court has legal repercussions for tech billionaire Elon Musk.
Musk sees himself as a defender of free speech. However, his network was recently used in Brazil to mobilize for anti-democratic actions. A group in Bolsonaro's presidential office is said to have organized smear campaigns against political opponents and cast doubt on the Brazilian electoral system. “Social networks are not a legal vacuum,” Judge Morae wrote in his investigative order, according to media reports.
