Elon Musk threatens to disobey court order over banned profiles: Brazil threatens to regulate social media owned by "billionaires domiciled abroad."

ft.com/content/26e54895-a37d-4ab1-baad-701d5ddcf150

Quick Glance: Elon Musk and the Support of Far-Right in Brazil

A court in Brazil is planning an investigation against X owner Elon Musk for alleged obstruction of justice, following Musk's reactivation of accounts belonging to far-right individuals that were flagged by the Brazilian government for removal.

Under Musk's leadership, X has transformed into a sanctuary for the far right and dissemination of misinformation, resulting in an escalation of hate speech on the platform.

Experts caution that Musk is establishing a dangerous precedent by protecting and promoting the far right on his platform, regardless of local regulations or public opinion.

Despite Musk's claims of advocating for free speech, the implementation of these principles on the platform has been inconsistent under his direction, especially concerning government requests to deactivate accounts.

Quick Glance: Elon Musk's Clash with Brazil's Supreme Court

Serial entrepreneur Elon Musk has been publicly criticizing Alexandre de Moraes, one of Brazil's Supreme Court judges, for the past week.

The dispute revolves around X, a social media company owned by Mr. Musk, which announced on April 6th that a Brazilian court had ordered it to block a set of 'popular' accounts or face hefty fines.

Mr. Moraes then initiated an inquiry against Mr. Musk for obstruction of justice, leading Mr. Musk to claim that censorship in Brazil is worse than in any other country where the platform operates.

The row highlights the power of Brazil's Supreme Court and the debate on regulating social media without harming freedom of speech, which is a crucial battleground in Brazil.

Quick Glance: Bolsonaro Mobilizes Supporters in Rio

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro rallied thousands of supporters in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday to boost his political capital after losing a reelection bid in October 2022 and facing allegations of involvement in a coup.

Bolsonaro, under investigation for undermining faith in Brazil's voting system, took the opportunity to praise Elon Musk and urged the crowd to applaud the billionaire.

Brazil's federal police formally accused Bolsonaro of sowing doubts about his vaccination records during the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to potential criminal charges.

Bolsonaro emphasized that his government never operated outside the bounds of the constitution and addressed accusations of involvement in manipulating decrees to overturn the 2022 election results.

Quick Glance: Simplification of Consumption Taxes in Brazil

Brazil's government presented proposed rules to Congress to execute a groundbreaking tax reform.

The reform's objective is to enhance productivity by simplifying Brazil's intricate tax system and converting five existing levies into a value-added tax (VAT).

Incorporating a selective tax that targets products deemed harmful to the environment and health is also a component of the reform.

The complete implementation of the new taxes is anticipated for 2033, potentially leading to reduced prices for popular consumer goods.

Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva officially recognized two more Indigenous territories on Thursday, but decided not to sign off on four others because they still need to be cleared by people currently occupying them.

The recognition grants the territories legal protection as reservations to be defended against invasions by illegal loggers, gold miners, and cattle ranchers.

Lula has recognized 10 Indigenous territories since taking office in January 2023 for his third non-consecutive term.

He stated that some state governors had asked for more time to resolve the issue, and acknowledged that his decision might frustrate some Indigenous people, but he needs to be cautious and provide them with alternative solutions.

Discussions about the future direction of Petrobras led to fluctuations in the company's stock price in recent sessions.

Additionally, the minister announced that the additional dividends withheld from Petrobras shareholders in March will be distributed once the board of the state-run oil company gives the green light.

Quick Glance: Petrobras Discovers Oil Reserves in Ultra-Deep Waters of Potiguar Basin

Petrobras has uncovered oil reserves in the ultra-deep waters of the Potiguar basin.

This marks the second discovery of hydrocarbons in Potiguar, pending further investigations.

The find was situated close to the border of the northeastern states of Ceara and Rio Grande do Norte.

Petrobras intends to conduct drilling operations for 16 wells in the Equatorial Margin over the next five years, although strikes are causing delays in permit issuance by the Brazilian environmental regulator Ibama.
