Rumble, the leading platform for free speech, has been banned in Brazil, marking a new and alarming attack on freedom of information. Rumble’s CEO, Chris Pavlovski, issued a strong message to users, warning about increasing restrictions in several countries around the world.

In a recent statement, Pavlovski announced that Rumble is no longer available to citizens of Brazil, joining other countries like France, Russia, and China where access to the platform has been blocked. This move comes after actions by Alexandre de Moraes, a judge of the Brazilian Supreme Court, who has been accused of leading a frontal attack on freedom of expression in the country.

«Global powers don’t want Rumble, X, Telegram, or Truth Social. They want to control information, but our companies won’t allow it,» Pavlovski stated, emphasizing how platforms that defend freedom are under siege by those seeking to silence independent voices.

The impact is profound: platforms like X, owned by Elon Musk, are also out of reach for Brazilians. As advertisers boycott these companies, Rumble and others are standing strong, fueled by the support of users committed to the cause.

«It’s the people who keep us alive and running,» Pavlovski reiterated, calling on people to join Rumble Premium to ensure that the fight for freedom of expression continues. As an incentive, Rumble is offering a $10 discount for new annual subscribers using the promotional code “brazil.”

Additionally, Rumble was blocked in Russia after refusing to comply with the censorship demands of the Russian government, according to CEO Chris Pavlovski. While platforms like YouTube continue to operate in Russia, Rumble rejected requests to remove content that did not violate its policies, such as channels about marijuana and political topics. Pavlovski emphasized that this action underscores the growing tensions over internet freedom and raises questions about the compliance of other platforms with Russian regulations.

This attack on freedom of expression cannot be ignored. Censorship is spreading, and platforms like Rumble are at the forefront of the battle.

Over the weekend, thousands of people protested against censorship on X and in favor of Bolsonaro’s return. Additionally, Lula appeared alone and isolated at the Independence Day parade.

Don’t stand idly by. Join the effort to protect the right to free information.
