Brazil is simply following suit from its fellow BRICS members, Russia and China.

Russia blocked twitter, facebook, instagram and soon youtube and co-opted VK and Telegram. Also trying to move against VPNs.

China has long used censorship and blocking to restrict its people from accessing information on the Internet.

Kremlin propagandists have been very successful in portraying a false image of the regime but it is the very opposite of a Free Republic.

For example, giving Edward Snowden exile. But if a Russian Edward Snowden revealed secrets of Kremlin surveillance like the American Snowden did of the US, the Kremlin regime would have tortured that person to death.

American patriot Snowden was transiting Russia from Hong Kong to I forget where, when the U.S. State Dept. jacked his passport preventing him from safely leaving.
