 Judge Orders X Ban in Brazil, Threatens People Accessing X via VPN with $8,874 Daily Fine

Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered internet providers and app stores to block X within five days, and the platform will stay blocked until it complies. Users or companies accessing X via virtual private networks (VPNs) will face daily fines of 50,000 reais (~$8,874).

 Do these people sleep easy at night? What makes one thing they can control others like this?? 
 They actually believe they are the good guys 
 Evil elitism that portends a worldview where everyone that isn’t them is just an insect. 
 #nostrfixesthis 
 51k brl is the fine for people who use vpns to access x, fun fact 51 is the favorite alcoholic beverage of the current president.

 Now the government wants to be jailed or fined $8k per day if someone uses a VPN to connect to X. 

Western countries are falling one by one under authoritarian censorship 🇨🇦🇬🇧🇧🇷 
 That's hilarious. Free starlink satellite internet where Brazil cannot ban X. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

 I'm surprised you are surprised! 

This was very predictable. 

When antonopoulos said we hadn't poke the 3000 lbs bear, he really meant it!  
 The fine for people using VPNs to access it is crazy.

And the judge really does look like a comic book villain.

 Hopefully this will push more people toward #nostr 
 This is really unbelievable! Personal rights and freedom have been demolished!  
 It has already gone back and withdrawn the request to operators to remove VPNs from stores (Apple and Google). But the 50k daily fine is still in effect. 

Já voltou atrás e retirou o pedido junto as operadoras que retirasse as VPNs das lojas (Apple e Google). Mas a multa de 50k diária continua valendo.  
 WTF is happening there. The new gestapo. 
 Mullvad VPN. Anonymous random account numbers and accept bitcoin. Orbot: free VPN for mobile. Tails OS: safe Linux os. 
 How in the hell did they come up with the number for that fine 🤔? The whole thing is outrageous. Brazil need to do a Fentanyl check on that judge. 
 I’m going to VPN over to Brazil and tweet, because GFY, commies 😈 
 Unfortunatelly Brazilian people are facing this kind of shit from supreme court members due to the connivance of part of the collectivist population of votters, whether out of ignorance, personal interest or convenience.
