The Supreme Federal Court (STF) of Brazil unanimously upheld the suspension of the Rumble social network, citing its lack of a legal representative in the country. Minister Alexandre de Moraes highlighted Rumble's use for spreading hate speech and attacks on democracy. Separately, the Attorney General's Office (PGR) opposed former President Jair Bolsonaro's appeal to remove ministers Flávio Dino and Cristiano Zanin from his coup plot trial, stating there were no legal grounds for their dismissal. Bolsonaro's trial, involving seven others, is set for March 25.
Brazilian Supreme Court Justice (STF) Alexandre De Moraes Friday suspended the social network Rumble from South America's largest country after the company remained without a legal representative past the given deadline following the resignation of the previous legal team and the network's failure to appoint a replacement.
