This is a screenshot of the most beautiful karma post of 2024.
After having abused his ownership of X for two years, Brazil becomes the first country to simply shut down X.
The legally elected social democratic government of Brazil experienced a January 6 style coup attempt by anti-democratic, hard-right nationalist Bolsonaro in January 2023.
They have since fought a long legal battle to get Musk to shut down X accounts related to this coup.
Musk refused.
So they shut him down.
@randahl Russia blocked Twitter/X in 2022 for the same reason.
However I don't see how this is a good news. Internet censorship hurts people and creates bad precedent.
Do you want your own country start blocking access to websites left and right and imposing huge fines on their own citizens for attempting to circumvent the blocks?

"The decision imposes a daily fine of R$50,000 (£6,800) on individuals and companies that attempt to continue using X via VPN."
