Like will it be a court order to ISPs to block X at a DNS level?
Yes, I believe the next step is for the Telecomm Agency to issue an ordinance. Google and Apple now have to remove the app from the store. Apparently VPNs are also not allowed to access it but I dunno how that would even work.

That’s the point: they can’t. However, based by the judge’s inquiry, the VPN apps are to be removed from app marketplaces, every single one of them. He asked Google and Apple to remove VPN apps altogether. This extrapolates the boundary of “blocking X”, because VPNs aren’t solely used for “bypassing ISP blocking”, VPNs are also used to link two or more devices into the same LAN over ther Internet, but this will be affected as soon as these apps vanish from Brazilian marketplaces.

Perhaps VPN servers in Brazil (I’m no lawyer) but people can choose to connect to servers outside the country.
They’ll probably let people access it but public figures profiles will get fined if they post something.
Yeah, you know how it goes. It’s illegal but you can do it if you want to.
Basically yeah.
