    I hope Lula wins and they will ban Facebook for good after the elections. This is an attack on Brazil’s sovereignty.

        Actually, the Australian government censored the internet for children and it appears to be working out as being good.

          Appears is the key word as most have gotten around the ban while others move to other sites usually from China.
