urteil

Brazil’s second instance appeals court lifted on Saturday the suspension of the encrypted messaging app Telegram, imposed earlier this week for its noncompliance in sharing information about extremist and neo-Nazi groups using the platform. Flávio Lucas, a judge from Brazil’s Federal Regional Court of the 2nd Region, stated in his decision that a complete suspension of Telegram’s service in the country “is not reasonable” due to its impact on the freedom of communication for thousands of people unrelated to the ongoing investigation. However, the judge upheld the imposition of a daily fine of one million reais ($200,553) on the company for failing to provide the requested data.

Die Betreiber müssen aber eine Strafe zahlen, weil sie Daten von Neonazigruppen nicht bereitstellen wollten. In Brasilien hat ein Gericht die Sperrung der Messenger-App Telegram wieder aufgehoben. Die landesweite Sperrung des Dienstes sei unverhältnismäßig, weil sie die Kommunikationsfreiheit Tausender Menschen beeinträchtige. Der zuständige Richter gab jedoch einem Urteil in erster Instanz recht, wonach die Betreiber des Chatdienstes eine tägliche Geldstrafe von einer Million Real (rund 180.000 Euro) zahlen müssen, weil sie Daten von Neonazigruppen nicht bereitstellen wollten. Telegram war gegen das erste Gerichtsurteil vom Mittwoch in Berufung gegangen, das eine landesweite Sperrung von Telegram angeordnet hatte, nachdem das Unternehmen einem Auskunftsgesuch der brasilianischen Polizei und Staatsanwaltschaft nicht nachkommen wollte. Es ging um persönliche Nutzerdaten von Mitgliedern zweier Neonazigruppen auf Telegram, die Brasiliens Behörden mit mehreren Angriffen auf Kinder in Verbindung bringen. Telegram hatte argumentiert, die angeforderten Informationen seien “technisch” nicht zu beschaffen.

A Brazilian court on Wednesday ordered the countrywide suspension of messaging app Telegram after its parent company failed to provide data sought by authorities on neo-Nazis operating on the network, officials said. In the framework of a probe into neo-Nazi activity on social networks, the court fined Telegram a million reais (about $198,000) per day for “not complying,” and ordered the “temporary suspension of (its) activities,” Justice Minister Flavio Dino said in a video sent to journalists. “There are groups called ‘Anti-Semitic Front’ and ‘Anti-Semitic Movement’ acting in those networks, and we know that this is at the core of violence against our children,” he added, in reference to a recent spate of attacks in schools. Earlier this month, a man carrying a hatchet killed four children between the ages of four and seven at their school in the same week as two other, non-fatal school attacks. Last month, a 13-year-old boy killed a teacher in a knife attack at a school in Sao Paulo. And last November, a 16-year-old shooter killed four people and injured more than 10 others in twin attacks on two schools in Aracruz in the southeastern state of Espirito Santo. The G1 news portal, citing police sources, reported the teenager had allegedly interacted with anti-Semitic groups on Telegram. According to a document from the federal justice authority in Espirito Santo, investigators had asked Telegram for the personal data of members of two stated anti-Semitic groups on the platform.
