By Big Techs, Trump breaks with Canada; Alert to Brazil is given
The message is explicit: the country that dare to move the financial and power structure of digital platforms – a trump base pillar – will be considered to have acted against the interests of the US government.
In the Brazilian government, sources of the highest level admit that Brasilia the situation of social networks as a “potential” area of conflict with the US and sends a message to the government of Donald Trump: Brazil has “red lines” and will act politically if there is any sanction against authorities in the country.
On Thursday, the Supreme Court expanded the platform’s responsibility for the dissemination of criminal or undemocratic posts. High -level sources in Brasilia do not rule out that, after the decision on Marco Civil, companies in the sector are pressure on stocks, and that governments, such as the US, consider measures.
But Brasilia indicated that he has already sent messages to the White House pointing out that there are limits and that any action involving sanctions will not be tolerated. “The messages were given,” said a Brazilian negotiator.
“We have red lines in the matter of interference with sovereignty,” he said. For the government, a sanction against STF ministers would be considered an attack on the “institutions of the Republic.”
The government predicts that there will be a “forceful response”, although there is no sanction forecast. The answer will be in the sphere of politics.
