Just like the Nazi soldiers in World War II? Nothing justifies taking down the country's main source of information.
Not following the law justifies not being able to run your service
The order to block Starlink accounts was just the bald guy following the law, right? We lost one of the largest social networks in the world and Brazil is going through a worldwide embarrassment because of this minister's actions. He is certainly doing a good job.
If the law tells an ISP to block an illegal site and you refuse, you are also going against the law. You might not like it because it is affecting your fav billionaire of the day, but the law is the law like it or not.
It's not about having a pet billionaire, fuck Elon Musk, the question is what's best for our country. In the end, we are the ones who are most affected by this. Starlink's accounts were not blocked because they did not block Twitter. The accounts were blocked on the morning of the 30th, and the block should have been in place by midnight on the 31st. Is blocking a company's account due to another company's actions following the law? https://www.techtudo.com.br/noticias/2024/08/starlink-tem-contas-bloqueadas-por-moraes-veja-o-que-muda-para-os-clientes-edmobile.ghtml Try to get a little information before you go yapping like a little dog in the state.
