A big issue here would be defining social media. Are forums social media? What about reddit? What about YouTube? I think what we really need is a ban on algorithmic recommendations that seek to encourage engagement or total time spent on th

Brazilian here. We still don't know if small things like comment sections and personal blogs will be under the new rules as our supreme court hasn't made any explicit exemption but their debates on the topic focused only on big te

assuming that the typo didn't lead to an invalid/unregistered key, you will see the recipient's bank, full name and masked CPF number in the confirmation screen. I really dislike the lack of a more anonymous way to transfer m

Why can't we just mandate people to send a copy of every publication to an UN Media Preservation Library and use something like redundant LTO tapes + Piql film to make sure stuff is never lost? Yes it's expensive but if we divide

In short, I think most Brazilians trust technology more than they trust their fellow Brazilians. We have a long history of lack of rule of law and of local authorities getting away with some pretty despicable shit. So, the less they can int

Brazilian computer science student here. Electronic voting is a good idea here because it raises the "barrier to commit fraud". Basically, back when we ran our elections on paper, there was a lot of fraud as it's pretty easy

I would do it differently: I would ban remote attestation on all general-purpose electronic devices and for all devices that are meant to be part of the home and run third party software. So computers, phones, and game consoles cannot have

Brazilian here, the situation around PL 2630 (aka the Fake News bill) is a huge mess. We absolutely need more oversight over big tech and we had had real violence and threats tied to online radicalisation (like all the death threats to our

The r/transprogrammers Discord server. It is just an amazing place. It feels small, it doesn't have excessively complicated rules and everyone is very similar to each other and experiences similar struggles.
