Barrassa on Large Tech: When Congress legitimates it, your will will be applied | Method
Minister Lose Roberto Barrow and Supreme Court (STF) president Roberto Barroso on Wednesday condemned the court’s attack on congressional abilities by confirming the responsibility of platforms and social networks for consumer publications.
“Establishing the standards that control the cases of the judicial system, there is nothing to do with our task and other powers, and there is a very little relationship with the censorship,” Barrose said.
In a statement in the plenary before the vote resumed, the Supreme Court president said that the standards defined by the Supreme Court would “succeed” until the Congress took advantage of this.
“And when the Congress is in the Legislative Assembly, this is the Congress’s will of the Federal Supreme Court applying the Constitution,” the minister said.
After a large tech lobby to bury the bill, the agenda has been locked in the legislature since the fake news PL failed.
Baroso argued that the Supreme Court had the duty to define the clear standards applicable in the concrete cases reaching the judiciary.
“The judiciary is not a legislature, it is very little to control digital platforms on the abstract platform,” the minister said.
“In fact, we must establish the criteria that guide the concrete cases before the court, and in the name of legal determination, we will apply to new cases that we understand and to the judiciary.”
According to the Supreme Court president, this problem is “complex, difficult and divided”, but the judiciary does not decide it.
“In Brazil, the court is unlikely to say, ‘This theme is very critical, very difficult, very disturbing, disturbing, face a lot.’ Or ‘I will not judge it because there is no law about it. ”
This trial revolves around the Article 19 of Internet Civil Marco, which prohibits the responsibility of platforms through the content published by users, except for the violation of court decisions to eliminate publications.
The Supreme Court decides whether to expand the responsibility of platforms to monitor the contents of the network – one of the largest fickle points of large techs. The Supreme Court needs to define the technical organizations even when there are no court orders to bring them out of the air, which represents a more strict content moderation.
