About the X block in Brazil.
Brazilian supreme court were asking X to close/suspend/moderate:
- accounts spreading fake news
- accounts spreading hate speech
- accounts spreading fascism/nazism ideology
- accounts spreading racism
- accounts spreading lbgtqia hate speech
- accounts demanding to close the supreme court
- accounts trying to create disarmony between federal powers, using fake news (executive branch, judiciary branch and legislative branch)
- accounts asking to have another militar dictatorship government instead of democracy
- accounts using free speech to attack judges, legislators, executives and governament branch leaders
- accounts using free speech to haras other people
And a lot, lot more.
They tried several times to talk with them, but twitter refused to comply or respond.
Supreme court is doing their job to secure our Constitution and our Brazilian democracy.
Twitter/X is a toxic non-moderated place right now, it's a risk for us and it's refusing to control their network, it's refusing to comply with Brazilian laws and Brazilian judiciarty court decisions.
That's what's happening.
That's the true.
If you have question I'm here to help!

Just asking: How did you get your Brazilian Supreme Court to judge this in the way it did? -

because of the fakenews vs free speach battle.
it's all started with the COVID19 outbreak and people posting fakenews about vaccines and drugs.
People sued invoked an article of our constituion related to "freedom of expression" or "free speech".
They lose in several Judiciary instances, and the last resort was STF or "Federal Supreme Tribunal".
STF just rules questions related to the constitution rights.
STF started a big investigation on the matter that we call fake-news-investigation.
STF decided that we have limits to free speech, misinformation, fakenews, hate speech are not covered.
Since them, several social network are being asked to moderate content and in some cases suspend/remove/disable accounts related to fakenews and hate speech.
