How much can you arrest representatives of Google in Brazil

Not only in Russia this fall, there is a struggle for posting videos on the Internet for hosting YouTube. A similar scandal of illegal entries turned in Brazil. But there's much more serious. It came to the arrest of «Google-Brazil" Fabio Jose Silva Coelho.

The scandal began with the emergence of the network of two rollers, which, according to the election commission, illegally abused running for mayor of the city of Campo Grande Alcides Bernal.

Drunkenness, campaigning for abortion, contempt for the poor, stealing and beating the young - that is the potential accused the mayor on these recordings. The Election Commission has put forward Bernal lawsuit demanding to remove the ads, as they transgress the law banning the humiliation of other candidates during the election campaign. This law was issued in 1965.

The court recognized the validity claims and ordered Google to remove the scandalous video from the Internet and to block YouTube broadcasts a day in the city of Campo Grande, in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul. The company refused to comply with the requirements of the court, which led to the arrest of the head of September 26 «Google-Brazil".

However, on September 27 Coelho released on condition that he appear in court. On the same day, all orders of the court have been fulfilled. Once in the wild, head of the local Google was of the view that freedom of speech should not be punished, and that the video was to remain in the public domain. In addition, according to Coelho, freedom of expression - an important prerequisite and a sign of a free society.

According to the Reuters video has been removed by the authors themselves. This is another example of how the power of forcing people to go on about it, erasing free speech.

A similar scandal videos occurred recently and also in Brazil, only in the state of Paraíba. At the time, the video the other candidate for mayor was named a donkey. Arrest in the case also took place: he was arrested a top manager Google. A few days later another court said that Google Inc. is not responsible for the movie, whose author is not.

On the basis of the above situations, the question is how long the company Google is going to suffer attacks courts of Brazil. Certainly, to lose such a large market is not in the interests of the corporation. But still, even in closed countries like Pakistan and Afghanistan use more civilized measures: ISPs do block YouTube.

Please note: in Brazil to remove frames from the movie "innocent Muslims," ​​the court has allocated 10 days. And then another arrest if Google did not comply.
