Elon Musk blinks first, bowing to pressure in Brazil to reopen X
The impasse had blocked the social media company from one of its most active markets.
For more than three weeks, a question has loomed over Brazil and much of the tech world: Who would back down first?
Would it be Elon Musk, whose refusal to comply with orders from a Brazilian judge had resulted in the suspension of the social network in one of its largest markets?
Or would it be Alexandre de Moraes, the taciturn jurist who issued the order?
This weekend appears to have brought an answer.
The social network X, formerly known as Twitter, said Friday that it had taken steps to comply with demands issued by the Brazilian Supreme Court to end the impasse that has severed the company from one of its most active markets. These included naming a representative in the country and blocking accounts that Moraes had accused of propagating misinformation and undermining Brazilian democracy. Much of the company’s fines have also been paid off.
Apesar de ser marginalmente melhor do que o tal do X, o Tumblr ainda é um site que quer gerar lucro. Uma maneira de gerar esses lucros é vendendo suas informações para terceiros
Isso quer dizer que todos os posts no seu perfil estão sendo vendidos nesse momento. Imagina reblogar um post legal de um artista só pra ele ser roubado e usado no banco de dados de uma IA sem permissão? Acontece toda hora, a não ser que você faça isso:
Vá nas Configurações dos seus blogs, vá em Visibilidade, e ATIVE a última opção ("Impedir o compartilhamento de [nome do blog] com terceiros")
OBS: tá vendo como é predatório isso? Todas outras opções em Visibilidade estão falando pra você fazer alguma coisa, enquanto a que impede o uso indevido dos seus dados é pra fazer eles pararem? Todo o resto você pode optar por fazer, mas isso você tem que optar por não fazer?
É possível que isso não funcione e que o Tumblr esteja mentindo? É. Mas é o que dá pra fazer.
In U-turn, Musk’s X starts to comply with court orders in Brazil
Elon Musk’s X will now comply with court demands in Brazil so it can resume operations in the country and potentially end its feud with a powerful judge over free speech, far-right accounts and misinformation.
The Brazilian Supreme Court asked the social media platform Saturday to present documents validating its new legal representative in the country.
X was shut down in Brazil in late August after it did not comply with orders from the top court related to hate speech moderation on the platform.
But in recent days, X representatives have started to publicly vocalize intentions to address the court demands, even though the firm had previously said it would not meet them.
In Brazil, an anaconda had a nasty shock when it tried to prey upon a caiman. Anacondas, like boas, wrap themselves around their victims and squeeze them to death. This 9ft-long caiman, however, fought back. The photographer reported that the pair stayed locked in battle for an hour, after which they went their separate ways – both realising, perhaps, that they’d bitten off more than they could chew.
