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.

Elon Musk is feuding with Brazil’s powerful Supreme Court: The court has become the de facto regulator of social media in the country

bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-22/brazil-makes-first-shipment-of-ethanol-to-us-jet-fuel-plant

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.

Quick Glance: Brazil's Lula Recognizes Two More Indigenous Lands, Postpones Four Others

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.

Quick Glance: Decision on Petrobras CEO role rests with Brazil's president, as stated by energy minister

Brazil's energy minister Alexandre Silveira emphasized that the decision regarding Petrobras' CEO, Jean Paul Prates, is solely in the hands of Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.

Following days of speculation about Prates' future, Silveira made it clear that he respects the controversial CEO and no changes will be made without the president's approval.

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: Nike CEO Acknowledges Shift from Direct Sales Focus

Nike CEO John Donahoe acknowledged that the company deviated too far from wholesale partners like Macy's and DSW in its pursuit of primarily selling products through its own stores and website.

Over recent years, Nike has actively worked on restructuring its business model. Initially focused on selling sneakers and clothing in department stores and specialty shops, the brand now generates the majority of its revenue through direct-to-consumer sales.

This transition enabled Nike to significantly increase revenue and enhance customer insights through data analysis. Donahoe stated that Nike has tripled its mobile and digital business in the past four years.

Some analysts view Nike's avoidance of wholesale partners as a misstep that hindered the company's progress in innovation and product development.
