BRAZIL-POLITICS-INTERNET

This photo illustration shows the Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva account on Bluesky Social in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on September 4, 2024. Bluesky, a social network that works similarly to X (formerly Twitter), had registered more than 2 million new users, driven by a large influx from Brazil by September 2nd. The increase in migration has made Portuguese the most widely spoken language on the platform, the company told AFP. This is yet another chapter in a series of clashes between billionaire Elon Musk, owner of X, and Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who ordered the social network to be blocked on August 30 after Musk failed to comply with a request to present a legal representative in Brazil. The blocking of X in Brazil was accompanied by an intense digital migration to other platforms, as is also the case with Threads.
