Anyone with half a brain will just use a VPN. Just saying.
#BREAKING: Brazil's Supreme Court says anyone using VPN to access Twitter/X is subject to fines up to $8,874 a day - https://nitter.poast.org/rawsalerts/status/1829613884929393031
Easy to work around:
If your account is known to be brazillian (eg: you used a brazil cell #, you said you were brazillian, and your account can be traced to you). don't use it the account. Create a new account.
if your account is unknown as brazillian yet (you use email, you never said you were brazillian, account can't be traced to you). Use the VPN.
be sure to test your VPN so it's not leaking at places like: https://www.expressvpn.com/dns-leak-test , https://firstpartysimulator.org/ , https://ipleak.net/ , https://www.expressvpn.com/dns-leak-test , https://www.expressvpn.com/webrtc-leak-test , https://ipx.ac/run , https://dnsleaktest.com/ , https://browserleaks.com/webrtc ,
This is probably going to be relevant in the US at some point soon, Iād guess.
Nazis gonna Nazi.
He's a commie.
The antithesis of a nazi.
Go study history again.
Nazis are National SOCIALISTS.
Have you done any reading into Mein Kampf? It reads like the Communist Manifesto!
Nazis are just commies who believe in national pride and hate Jews. U/Cheesecakecrush is correct. Two sides of the same authoritarian coin.
Honestly this.
People who still parrot the old line about commie = left and nazi = right have been duped by "social scientists".
What we have now is communo-fascism. Elements of both.
The real dichotomy is between LIBERTY and TYRANNY. When there's a boot on your neck, it doesn't matter if the boot is communist, fascist, Marxist, monarchist, oligarchic, plutocratic, islamicist....it's all tyranny.

Two sides of the same authoritarian coin.
Did I say were the same in all aspects? All I said was Authoritarian. Dont get your panties in a wad trying to defend nazis.
Since you don't seem to grasp what "two sides of the same coin" means, let me ask you:
Do you think that both sides of the coin read exactly the same? Do you think that a coin is heads and heads?
how will they know if using starlink?
Erm awkward, if one is a corporation using VPN for firewall and effective spam elimination reasons. Perhaps the rich will be able to afford the fines? So - rules for thee, but our (very important) corporate can pay for having a VPN. LOL sowing division some more.
My theory is that human nature will continue to find ways to subvert the 'authorities' when the latter get too repressive, and there is a natural progression towards nothing left to lose, time to lose it in the streets - i.e., riots, more violence and eventually, bloody revolution. The 'authorities' then try to crack down even more, and fill up the jails and there is a civil-war death-spiral for the nation, as all the fightingest and loudest (e.g. normal construction workers and teachers) are locked up, or worse, killed.
Will the Brazilians use alternative Social Media? Maybe they adapt and will use WeChat, Tictoc, Discord or Telegram, Instagram or whatever. So in effect, taking out Twitter will just devolve to many competitors in that space. Problem categorically Not Solved. People will find a way to talk to each other. Some have huge followings and they will just take their audience elsewhere. The 'authorities' can only clamp down on social interaction so much, even if it comes down to strange low-tech activisim such as silently passing small stamp-sized slips of paper, hidden from surveillance cameras, with a dark-web-address or just a QR code on it. PErhaps people will get tattoos to be photographed for secret messages. The 'authorities' will then try and control that activity. Etc.
Apparently I don't have half a brain because I have no idea what you mean by VPN.
virtual private network
Anyone that can afford a fine of $9000/day
Zigackly, and who may they be?
Yeah but get caught and ..,
Take away their starlink as well.
... or make Starlink more ubiquitous (cheaper), so that anyone following rules and banning the X app is eliminated from the provider market.
I think that many areas in Brazil would benefit.
YES!!!!
Straight up tyrrany.
Does the Supreme Court make the laws or interrupt them?
Remember the B in BRIC is for Brazil. They are on the socialist path so X out, tik toc in.
As for a judge making laws, very, very odd.
God help us.
The difference between us and them (but I'll go ahead and just speak for myself):
If there was a social media platform that amplified and catered to straight up communists, I wouldn't call for it's ban. I'd simply mock and prove their ideas as idiotic. (Also lol, I guess that accurately describes 99% of social media)
Yeah that's basically Reddit lol
That's becaause you aren't worried that someone will post a video of you raping a child or some other sick shit like that freak is probably into
Brazil became a communist country faster than imagined.
I guess the judges, or at least this one judge, sets the laws there in Brazil. Sounds crazy.
Silence the truth used by the Nazi's.
Probably an unpopular opinion but Elon is definitely in the wrong here. The law is that any company doing business in Brazil has to have a legal representative in Brazil. The US has the same legal requirement for businesses, it's called an officer or registered agent. Every business has to have one in any country they operate. When I started my business I had to have one just like everyone else.
Twitter decided they didn't need to have one, Brazil told them they did, Elon told them to fuck off and now Twitter has to deal with the consequences.
You don't seem to be fully caught up on the situation, as there was a legal representation but she resigned and the judge froze her shit.
Elon is not in the wrong here; Elon refused to bow to their requirements to suppress free speech, and so Elon bowed out.
No, I'm well aware. Their rep didn't resign, X made the decision to cease operations rather than comply with Brazilian law. Just because Elon, you, or I don't agree with the law it doesn't mean he can ignore it without consequences.
Doesn't matter what you say, he's not in the wrong.
He pulled out.
Then on top of that, they're punishing their own citizens for bypassing a ban placed on a company.
That shows who is truly in the wrong. It is quite clear what the goal is.
Pull Starlink from their military and pop some popcorn.
I guess he's the head DICKtator in charge.š
I think we watch just a movie in Brasil.
No country that censors speech should get a penny from us.
Maybe it's time there to go to printed underground newspapers.
