Brazil just banned X. Could other countries follow suit? (theconversation.com)

It wasn't like a law banning X. They were Court ordered to do something and they didn't do it.

Could that happen in other countries? I mean sure but not the way you're implying.

The UK government has already accused them of stirring up riots.

We ban piracy sites on the largest ISPs, and could easily add X to that list.
