Minister Alexandre de Moraes of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) determined on Thursday (20) that the Rumble Social Network appoint a legal representative in Brazil. The deadline must be met in 48 hours. If the decision is not complied with, the network may be suspended in the country and sentenced to the payment of a fine. 
The decision was made after the minister finds that the company is without representative in the country. According to documents in the file, the company’s lawyers resigned from the mandate of representation and new representatives were not appointed.
“The Brazilian legal system therefore provides for the need for companies that manage internet services in Brazil are based in the national territory, as well as to meet the judicial decisions that determine the withdrawal of illicit content generated by third parties, under the terms of the provisions Previously indicated, under penalty of personal liability, “said the minister.
The minister’s resolution was made in the process in which the arrest and the extradition of blogger Allan dos Santos was determined, accused of disseminating attacks on court ministers. He currently lives in the United States.
According to Moraes, despite the determination of the suspension of profiles on social networks, Allan continues to create new pages to continue the “commitment of crimes”.
“The channels/profiles of the investigated Allan Lopes dos Santos in social networks are used as true protective shields for the practice of illicit activities, giving the investigated a true criminal indemnity clause to maintain the commitment of crimes already indicated by the Federal Police, not Demonstrating the investigated any restriction on propagating his criminal speeches, “Moraes said.
Moraes’s decision occurs as the US President’s media group Donald Trump and Rumble appealed to the American court to accuse the minister of “censoring” platforms and suspending user accounts.
