X, owned by Elon Musk, claims Brazilian judge Alexandre de Moraes threatened to arrest one of the company's legal representatives if it did not remove content.
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.”
Earlier this year, Moraes ordered X to block certain accounts, as he investigates so-called “digital militias” that have been accused of spreading fake news and hate messages during the government of far-right former President Jair Bolsonaro.
These people are the equivalent of Trump’s cult followers, although I’m not on Twitter myself I am sure they are spreading fake news and any fight against it is a win in my point of view. I myself see these Bolsonaro lovers all the time and it’s crazy how they are brainwashed. I know plenty of people who didn’t take the COVID vaccine because of him.
I hate Musk as much as anyone, but it’s a shit decision by Brazil

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…
It’s also 100% true
