Elon Musk's X social network carried out an automatic update on phone applications that allowed it to bypass a ban in Brazil, an association of internet providers said Wednesday.

Some Brazilian users have regained access to X despite a nationwide ban put in place by the country’s Supreme Court.

Brazilian X users can suddenly access the app again after X switches to Cloudflare's servers. An X spokesperson says the access is temporary, and the company will comply with the ban.

Elon Musk's social media platform X, formerly Twitter, temporarily bypassed a ban in Brazil by using IP addresses shared with other services, though the access was later deemed "inadvertent and temporary.

Brazil's Supreme Court ordered Elon Musk-owned X not to circumvent a previous ruling suspending the social media platform in the country, at risk of a daily fine of 5 million reais ($921,726.95), according to a decision issued late on Wednesday.

The social media platform X was temporarily available again in Brazil amid a ban as the result of an update to its servers, the company said.

X suddenly went live in Brazil on Wednesday after an apparent update to its communications network that allowed it to use cloud services via third parties. But it went back offline again on Thursday.

Brazil has fined Elon Musk's companies after some users in the country were able to briefly access the social media platform X, despite a ban imposed last month. Brazilian users swarmed the site on Wednesday after X updated how its servers within the country were accessed.

Elon Musk's X social media platform went back offline in Brazil Thursday, a day after it resumed service in contravention of a judicial ban, internet providers said.

Elon Musk's X became available to many users in Brazil on Wednesday after an update to social media site's communications network made it accessible there despite a ban imposed by the country's top judge last month.
