There is only one (non-standard) emoji to convey my emotion on the subject
Brazil will thrive after this decision
Oh make the video with new subtitles.
Bitchy oligarch isn’t above the law everywhere like he wishes. Hope this helps with his downfall.
Well good for them.
This is how you deal with people like him. After trying to treat them fairly, act with strength and authority. Hit them in the wallet whenever possible.
Twitter is a cesspool of racism and the preferred platform for Nazis

In a highly unusual move, Justice Moraes also said that any person in Brazil who tried to still use X via common privacy software called a virtual private network, or VPN, could be fined nearly $9,000 a day.
Wild stuff.
… Would they know, if it’s via a VPN?
If you make any mistakes whatsoever, then yes.
He tried to forbid VPN downloads too, but backpedaled on that. All the government uses VPN to work from home. Imagine you’re in this scenario and open X by mistake, 9k!
I’m brazillian and its not quite blocked yet, can access it as of this moment. It will take some time until all internet providers block twitter
Can you tell us more about the motivations? Seems political more than anything specific musk is doing now that he wasnt doing before.
Im happy to see X go down in flames, but I also dont want citizens silenced if fascism is creeping in.
Mostly because of how Xitter refused to block accounts accounts related to an insurrection at the Capitol, then ignored court orders.
To be clear to usinites: that’s the Jan 8 Brazilian capitol uprising, staged a year later and in copy of the orange one.
That judge claims the people he wants banned from the platform are anti democracy and what not, but musk refused to comply. Its a complicated subject and my opinion is just that, my own opinion. That judge (most of them in fact) believe themselves to be all mighty, they interpret the law as they see fit and use their supreme court orders to do as they wish, when their role should be only to act as the highest instance of law in the country. Just today he also froze starlink’s account in the country to charge fines from the twitter issue, that is not exactly the correct way to go about it, he is over stepping his powers.
To be short: fuck Elon but the supreme court here is also crap and needs a reform.
Just out of curiosity: how is the blocking usually implemented? Do they block it via DNS, or is it more sophisticated?
Is not nearly as common as you seem to imply, I have never had to deal with that kind of block in my life. It is being done by the isps themselves, thats all I know
Congrats, Brazil!
And nothing of value was lost.
twitter was pile of garbage even before Muskow bought it.
What is this X
A crappy porn site I think.
Pussy in bio!
If you bought Twitter off Temu
Right-wing-nutjob-infested-and-controlled social network.
I think it’s what we call Xitter.
Bluesky is experiencing a hockeystick scenario currently, apparently. Probably entirely coincidental.
Blocking Western social media is good. It might boost federated alternatives instead.
Promote mastodon as much as you can because notes a good time to do so.
Lololol.
