Electoral court President Barroso threatens to suspend Telegram
Supreme Court (STF) Justice and Superior Electoral Court (TSE) President Luís Roberto Barroso again commented on the suspension of Telegram in Brazil.
“I think that a platform, whatever it is, that doesn't want to submit to Brazilian laws should simply be suspended,” he said in an interview with O Globo newspaper.
"Brazil is not a place where just anything can be said”.
Blocking Telegram in Brazil has been a constant topic in the Supreme Court. While Facebook, WhatsApp, TikTok have collaborated with the Brazilian court to remove disinformation during the 2020 elections, Telegram ignored dialogues from the Supreme Court of Brazil to work together in 2022.

Spain Blocks Telegram Over Distribution of Pirated Content by Users
A Spanish judge has ordered the temporary blocking of the popular messaging app Telegram in response to a lawsuit filed by several local media companies, including EGEDA, Mediaset España, A3 Media, and Movistar Plus. The decision, made by Judge Santiago Pedras of the National Court of Spain, comes as part of an ongoing investigation into allegations that Telegram users have been distributing pirated content.
The court had requested that Telegram provide technical data to help identify the owners of accounts allegedly used to infringe upon intellectual property rights. However, the messaging app failed to comply with this request, leading to the temporary blocking order and a six-month extension of the investigation.
According to the court ruling, the blocking must be implemented within three hours of receiving the official court notice. The order encompasses not only the Telegram apps, but also the Telegram.org website and the web version of the platform.
Telegram has a significant user base in Spain, with a recent survey by the National Commission for Markets and Competition (CNMC) indicating that approximately 8.5 million users rely on the messaging app, meaning this ban will affect a vast amount of people that use Telegram as an essential tool for communication on a day to day basis.
