    because it has allegedly failed to help in an investigation.

    then one suggests that brazil suspends the whole world,
    as it failed in its help of investigation. ?

    If the last paragraph is accurate, let's support the judge! Just shows how 19th century Brazzos are. How did he convey his 'request' for help? Word of mouth? A letter? Did he phone? Did he think to enquire why his request hadn't been complied with? If the picture is also accurate, he looks like a prat.

    What a fucking twat ! Why doesn't he try to ban the internet ?? This judge is from the State of Piaui, the poorest in the country, which has a thriving child sex industry ; and, probably run by local politicians ; typical brazzo approach....attack the consequences not the cause..

    I think the whole of Brazil should be cut off from every modern form of communication as Brasso wants.

    At least we would be spared the stupid, stupid comments from certain idiots including DumbAss Dilma & co.

    You would have thought a judge would have far more important things to do,
    rather than blame an app,
    .

    Mercopenguin has managed to sink to a new low news reporting standard. This story is days old. And just as old is the news that the ruling has been reversed. Surely the British can show some minimal competence and organize a better propaganda service than this one.

    @ 8 Idiota Hepatitis

    What have the British got to do with this article you numbskull?

    MP is operated by interests in SA and is a NEWS SERVICE!

    As you probably have no idea what that is, being a complete idiot, let me explain. MP obtain ALL their articles from other journals or direct from the authors. They have NO reporters and therefore cannot / do not write articles themselves.

    So, birdbrain, what had the British got to do with an article written in Brazil?

    You are so stupid you rival Brasso for the title of 'dumbass of the century'. If you married him you would then have two brain cells between you.

    @11 Troy.
    Very Good! lol!

    This article just shows how egotistical, parochial and foolish a Brrazilian provincial Judge can be.
    Is he going to ban the Internet?
    He could learn from King Canute, who proved to his over-enthusiastic followers, that not even he, could hold back the Sea.
    Where-as this fool obviously thinks he can.
    No wonder it was rescinded, not much choice in the matter.
    What a complete prick. Another embarrassment for Brazil.
