Gate.io News bot reports that, according to Decrypt, the Brazilian government is taking action to ban the social chat application Discord. This move comes after police recently successfully thwarted a planned attack on Lady Gaga's concert in Rio, which was organized on the Discord platform. The concert, which attracted over 2.1 million viewers, had targets that included children, teenagers, and the LGBTQ+ community.
Brazilian congressman Guilherme Boulos has submitted a formal application for a ban. He pointed out that because Discord has not established a legal representative in Brazil, it has led to difficulties in regulating illegal content on the platform.
