                  <p>Hi Christian</p>
                  <p>Yes, a joint statement by other ISOC chapters would
                    be very useful. <br>
                  </p>
                  <p>The voting of the bill in the Brazilian Senate, due
                    for yesterday, has been postponed to next week,
                    after intense opposition and pressure by many
                    organizations. This is the third time that the
                    voting is postponed by 1 week, because of strong
                    opposing voices. But the text of the bill is not
                    becoming better, much on the contrary ... So any
                    additional voices against the bill may be very
                    helpful at this moment.</p>
                  <p>It is important to notice that, even if the bill is
                    approved by the Senate (where it has been originally
                    proposed), it will go the House of Representatives
                    for a new round of discussion and voting, and we
                    will have another opportunity to avoid its approval
                    or, at least, convince the Representatives to modify
                    its content considerably. <br>

                      <div>I don’t know if all of you are aware, but a

                        the parliament in Brazil at this moment. </div>
                      <div>Despite the strong opposition from different

                      <div><br>
                      </div>
                      <div>The bill is promoted by the opposition and
                        their supposed objective is to limit the use of
                        fake news by the ruling party. they accuse the

                      <div><br>
                      </div>
                      <div>However, the solution proposed is very very
                        bad and it challenges some of the pillars of the
                        Open Internet that most of us have been
                        defending and promoting for many years. And of
                        course, it contradicts several principles of the
                        "Marco Civil" of the Internet in Brazil, that

                        happen in USA, like all the controversy around
                        Sec.230 (what is right of course) and we don’t
                        see other things happening in other parts of the

                      </div>
                      <div>Brazils is one of the largest democracies in
