Jamesons stated that Meta reactivated its Instagram page after removing it in July, when it had more than 30,000 followers. According to the author, the company informed via email that the account did not violate Community Standards and could be used normally again. He said the page was deactivated for more than three months, including the entire first round of elections, and that the absence caused losses in reach, engagement, events, and content opportunities. Jamesons stated that he turned to the courts and that the process would continue, as the reactivation would not compensate for the damages. The author also alleged that Meta had been arbitrarily banning left-wing accounts while reducing their reach. He thanked those who followed the project during the period and asked for support to rebuild the page's presence on Instagram, with likes, comments, shares, and other interactions. #CulturaPop #LiberdadeDeExpressão #Justiça (translated)

Jones Manoel stated that Meta admitted to a flaw in the counting of video views on Instagram during the second round of elections and that, until then, it had not clarified which content was affected, the extent of the problem, or whether the distribution of posts was harmed. He said that Instagram and Facebook had a significant influence on the circulation of information, while the criteria of their algorithms remained little transparent. He argued that digital and data sovereignty should occupy a central position in Brazilian politics and that foreign companies should be subjected to transparency, oversight, and accountability. Manoel also stated that Brazil needed to develop its own capacity to protect data and ensure algorithmic transparency. He said he intended to put the topic at the center of the debate in the National Congress in 2027 and rejected, in his words, that the country should be treated as the backyard of the United States. #SoberaniaDigital #Algoritmos #Transparência (translated)

He added that every good begins "in the sign of the Holy Spirit" and carries with it a breath, a dynamism, and a sense of communion which, once experienced, remain engraved in the heart. https://t.co/wRoRV6Ix7L #Intelligenza #Esperienze #SpiritoSanto (translated)

Gustavo Petro stated that an imprisoned prosecutor had asked a judge to protect him from those who, he said, could kill him in prison because of the people he had imprisoned. He also asked Evo Morales, Luis Arce, and social leaders from Bolivia to support threatened judges and prosecutors. He maintained that they had discovered that Fernando Cerimedo, whom he accused of links to drug trafficking and of being a Nazi and a femicide, was a business partner and a member of a circle of friends of a son of U.S. President Donald Trump. Petro pointed out that the Bolivian prosecutor's office could have suppressed the people and served wealthy sectors, but he called for unity among those who were not fascists and to defend democracy. He stated that the peoples of the region had a history of 60,000 years and called for unity and organization. He also urged Trump to correct his son's behavior and his policy towards Latin America; he argued that Israeli algorithms linked, according to him, to genocide were replacing voters, and called for respect for Afro-Latin America. He warned the U.S. president not to unleash popular violence. https://t.co/4VTfJykSS4 #Bolivia #Unidad #Democracia (translated)
