I expect that many Brazilian citizens will celebrate this a "win" but... this still just gives X and Elon the right to censor whatever they wantš. Also, given the fact that Starlink operated and relied heavily on Brazil for data harvesting is definitely another huge factor for Xs most recent update.

In short, I do agree with you but, one thing is certain: the tension between Elon and Moraes will escalate.
Are their many Brazilian citizens using nostr?
No. Brazilian prefer mainstream social media and think that Nostr is for ultra conservative right wing people.The ones who learned about it have a really bad opinion on Nostr because they believe that freedom of speech is hate speech. So I donāt think many Brazilians will become Nostrichesā¦ but I might be wrong.
I am not thinking of Elon Musk that much,what scares me the most is that governments world wide think theyāve got the right to simply censor social media according to their interests. In my opinion no government should interfere in the means of communication. I donāt like Elon and I donāt think heās a freedom representative. What Iām afraid is of this censorship trend that is happening almost everywhere š©
My opinion about Brazilians being open to Nostr is based on the people I know. I havenāt conducted any research here. Itās quite shallow,forgive me for that.
It'll be alright. Just give them time. They'll come around and see things clearly eventually.

That's very disappointing to hear. There should never be a reason to intentionally obscure the ideals of freedom of speech and replace them with hate speech. That's just pure evilš. And corporations control governments; they're equally evil institutions. They essentially advise governments on what to censor to form a state of least resistance from the masses. But, their plan for doing so is clearly backfiring for many reasons: sky-high tax rates, "advertisements" that are clearly propaganda (which also fuel hateful narratives), unbearable living costs, useless Healthcare and educational systems, totalitarian legal systems etc. You name itš¤·āāļø!
Yep! šš¼ Youāre right. Letās hope for the best.
