X inadvertently restored in Brazil amid ban after server switch

Sept. 19 (UPI) -- 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.

The Brazilian Association of Internet and Telecommunications Providers, or ABRINT, said that X users with the social media app on their smartphones received an automatic update, allowing them to access the platform after X began using IP addresses linked to the Cloudflare service.
