Worrying news from Brazil 🇧🇷 The Fake News bill being discussed by Congress imposes mandatory social media account ID registration (!) and seems to be aiming to strict data localization and data retention obligations. 1/5

If you thought mandatory SIM card registration is bad, this is worse. All social media users would have to provide valid Brazilian ID or passports if they’re foreigners & a Brazilian phone number to be able to open a user account. 2/5
It also aims to impose data retention obligations for internet connection logs (!) for 1 year by ISPs and 6 months by online applications. Plans for EU Adequacy post-LGPD may be … problematic. See CJEU in Digital Rights Ireland curia.europa.eu/juris/document… 3/5

I also wonder how is this in line with the Brazilian Supreme’s Court recent decisions elevating data protection as a right protected by the Constitution fpf.org/2020/06/09/a-l… Friends from Brazil, are you following this? CC: @ddoneda @1lucabelli @brunobioni @RenatoLeiteM 4/5
