Brazil's Supreme Court Halts $8,900/Day VPN Fines, Moraes Backs Down
Sep 2, 2024, 07:59 PM
Brazil's Supreme Court has decided to halt the enforcement of fines on citizens using virtual private networks (VPNs) to access the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter. This decision marks a significant shift from previous measures that included a daily fine of $8,900 for such activity. The move is seen as a victory for free speech advocates who have criticized the court's censorship efforts led by Judge Alexandre de Moraes, often referred to as 'Dictator Moraes'. Citizens have been resisting censorship by accessing X without VPNs, signaling the failure of Moraes' efforts. However, fines will still be imposed on individuals using VPNs to disseminate hate speech or misinformation.
