In a new attack on freedom of expression, the European Union blocked La Derecha Diario on all networks and devices of the European Parliament. The measure included the addition of the Argentine portal to "a blacklist of the computer emergency response team".
The authoritarian decision was made under the argument of protecting against "malicious sites". This measure prevents legislators and staff of the institution from accessing the outlet's content, in a clear act of left-wing censorship.
The case of Brazil
After the inauguration of dictator Lula da Silva, La Derecha Diario was also the victim of direct censorship in Brazil, becoming the first foreign portal blocked by court order in that country. The measure was promoted by Lula's ally, judge Alexandre de Moraes, a central figure of the Supreme Court, as part of an offensive by the Brazilian socialist regime against critical and independent voices.
