The digital influencer Bárbara Destefani, creator of the Te Atualizei channel, reported this Saturday (13) that her videos were banned from Youtube in Brazil. A message on the platform indicates that the channel’s videos are unavailable in the country due to a court order.

“Incredibly after my participation in the commission that discussed censorship in Brazil, all my videos were BANNED from Brazil. Now it is impossible to watch my videos in Brazil and I simply HAVE NO ONE TO TURN TO! THEY SWORE ME THAT THIS WAS A DEMOCRACY !!!!”, he criticized in a post on Twitter.

A People’s Gazette I try to contact Youtube, but so far I have not received a response.

At the beginning of the year, the influencer’s social networks were also blocked. Bárbara participated this week in a public hearing in the Chamber of Deputies, whose theme was the “institutionalization of censorship in Brazil”. At the time, she claimed that she did not have access to the case file and said that she was not notified and does not even know the reasons why her personal profile was removed from the air.

At the hearing, Bárbara also reported the fear of exposing opinions in Brazil and cited a series of reports that have been censored in recent years. “We need to feel safe, and I’m pretty unsure of whether to voice any opinion,” she said.
