I hate Musk as much as anyone, but it's a shit decision by Brazil
Is it not Musks decision? I thought the situation was more akin to "Your house your rules? I don't like your rules so I'm packing a bag and running away."
You're defending censoring people who are speaking out against the government. How is that a good thing?
Is it censorship, or stopping (actual) fake news and lies because Musk fired Twitters moderation team?
(I don't actually know)
Censoring incorrect information is still censorship
Sure but in this case the judge is not censoring merely incorrect information. It's written in the article that I assume you haven't read
The judge ordered to remove the account of a militant group that attempted a coup after the party they support lost the election
This is exactly the kind of thing that should be censored. Anti democracy groups
This is hands down one of the dumbest things I've ever heard....
Moraes have a case in his hand (the tried coup last year), because he was the supreeme judge for the elections. He judged that these people tried to help the coup and demanded that their accounts are suspended (entirely cool with the constitution), as musk doesn't want that, they're gone from Brazil and might be blocked countrywide.
