Read previewElon Musk's X says it accidentally restored temporary access to the social media platform in Brazil on Wednesday, just weeks after it was banned in the country. This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. This made "blocking the app much more complicated," the country's trade group for internet service providers added. In response, Musk closed X's Brazil offices and refused to comply with an order to name a legal representative in the country. X didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider, made outside normal working hours.
