O Senado aprovou um projeto de lei para proteger as crianças online.

O PL proíbe as plataformas de usar seus dados pessoais de maneira abusiva e seu perfilamento para direcionar publicidade, duas recomendações da @hrw.org

O presidente Lula deveria sancioná-lo.

Hello, world!
As my first post here, it feels fitting to share my latest piece 😉 www.hrw.org/news/2024/12...

Brazil’s data regulator banned X from using Brazilian child users' data to train AI. Other gov'ts should protect kids' privacy in AI, too.
