Carl Szabo, vice president and general counsel for NetChoice, says Brazil has threatened to fine its citizens nearly $9,000 a day if they attempt to use social media platform X. “What’s frightening is what happens in Brazil doesn’t stay in Brazil. It spreads. And we are seeing this epidemic of free speech cancelation go global,” he warns. “France is trying to ban Telegram. England is trying to ban X. Russia is banning Facebook and even here in the United States of America, we are seeing calls to ban speech online—whether it is from politicians or even from the White House itself.”
