Hello,

Last night the OONI team published a new report, documenting the *ongoing
blocking of Telegram in Brazil*.

You can read the report here: https://ooni.org/post/2023-brazil-telegram/

OONI data shows that some ISPs in Brazil immediately complied with the
federal judge’s decision to suspend Telegram, as the blocking of Telegram
started on 26th April 2023 (same day as the judge's decision).

However, the block was not implemented by all ISPs in Brazil, nor was it
implemented in the same way.

Some ISPs blocked access to all tested Telegram endpoints, while others
only blocked some of them. This suggests lack of coordination between
providers, and that each ISP implemented the block autonomously. Learn more
details through our report.

You can continue to monitor the blocking of Telegram in Brazil through OONI
data, which is automatically published in real-time:

We thank OONI Probe users in Brazil who contributed measurements,
supporting this study. <3
