"Quando o Tribunal de Justiça do Rio destituiu #EdnaldoRodrigues pela primeira vez, em dezembro de 2023, não houve quem duvidasse de que por trás da decisão estava Zveiter. Seu filho, #FlávioZveiter, é um cartola que faz oposição a Rodrigues e que tentou sucedê-lo tão logo ele deixou o cargo. Da mesma forma, quando #GilmarMendes reconduziu Rodrigues à presidência da CBF, o mundo da cartolagem não teve dúvidas de que o ministro estava guiado por interesses próprios. Desde 2023, o Instituto Brasileiro de Ensino, Desenvolvimento e Pesquisa (#IDP), do qual Gilmar é sócio e fundador, tem um contrato milionário com a #CBF. O ministro, além disso, já emplacou ao menos seis diretores na confederação. (Ainda assim, ele nunca se declarou suspeito para julgar processos que envolvem a CBF.)"

"Hasan Piker, a left-wing YouTuber and US citizen, was recently held and questioned for hours by US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials in Chicago after returning from France. In a video, Piker says the agents seemed to know who he was and asked about his political beliefs, including repeated questions about his views of Hamas."

Arwa Mahdawi reports that if you're planning to enter the US now, either as a citizen or someone with a visa, or a foreign traveler, "It’s also prudent to assume that your social media activity has been examined."

She writes,

"It is not only non-citizens who should be worried."
