- Absolutely ser! Well articulated post. Thanks for sharing. 💯🫡
- It is interesting to see how recent actions here in Brazil reveal a larger issue about freedom of expression on social media. The need to remove illegal accounts can easily become a political tool, where interpretations of the law can be used to silence dissenting voices. In an impactful and sensational way, the proposal to use blockchain to guarantee data integrity could be revolutionary. It will be necessary to create material for crypto influencers here in Brazil, it is something that will move very slowly and runs the risk of being sabotaged or politicians themselves not engaging. By establishing consensus on data integrity, we can create a system that not only protects users' property and privacy, but also enables censorship resistance. This marks a fundamental shift from simply avoiding evil to making it impossible to be malicious.
- That’s exactly the reason we are here and why I believe so much in the future we are shaping together!🌹
- Interesting. I'm bullish on Elon musk however. Super bullish on this man. How long he can hold the line is different a story. His urge for the truth to be told is something no other platform is pushing .truth hurts
- what happened in Brazil?
- That's why we are here.
- Social media platforms are in a risky position. They must adhere to the laws of the countries they operate in, which can sometimes lead to content takedowns that go against the spirit of free expression. Moreover, Politicised legal interpretations further complicate the situation. Content deemed harmful or illegal in one region might be perfectly acceptable elsewhere. This creates a challenging landscape for platforms trying to maintain a global presence.
- But in this specific case in Brazil, it's because there are plenty of people spreading fake news like crazy nowdays , so there is a need to someone to say stop with this craziness.
- I'm Brazilian and Brazil is suffering from the loss of freedom of expression... They're trying to establish a dictatorship.
- Change is inevitable, the future government will adapt
- Also Musk has a lot of interests in Brazil and with Tesla and Starlink but BYD will build an electric car factory in the north of Brazil, etc. He's probably not very happy about it.
- Agreed
