Now the government wants to be jailed or fined $8k per day if someone uses a VPN to connect to X. Western countries are falling one by one under authoritarian censorship 🇨🇦🇬🇧🇧🇷
I'm surprised you are surprised! This was very predictable. When antonopoulos said we hadn't poke the 3000 lbs bear, he really meant it!
The fine for people using VPNs to access it is crazy. And the judge really does look like a comic book villain.

It has already gone back and withdrawn the request to operators to remove VPNs from stores (Apple and Google). But the 50k daily fine is still in effect. Já voltou atrás e retirou o pedido junto as operadoras que retirasse as VPNs das lojas (Apple e Google). Mas a multa de 50k diária continua valendo.

WTF is happening there. The new gestapo.
Mullvad VPN. Anonymous random account numbers and accept bitcoin. Orbot: free VPN for mobile. Tails OS: safe Linux os.
How in the hell did they come up with the number for that fine 🤔? The whole thing is outrageous. Brazil need to do a Fentanyl check on that judge.
Unfortunatelly Brazilian people are facing this kind of shit from supreme court members due to the connivance of part of the collectivist population of votters, whether out of ignorance, personal interest or convenience.
