YouTube Blocked in Brazil 387
keeboo writes "The popular video sharing site YouTube is now blocked in Brazil due to a local court decision last Thursday. The site was ordered to block the uploaded sex videos of Brazilian media starlet Daniela Cicarelli and, although it complied, many users kept re-uploading it to the site. After the failure of YouTube to keep the video off of the site, the domain was blocked nationwide at a DNS level. Predictably, many Brazilians are annoyed and I've started to receive even SPAMs protesting on this blocking. From the article: 'The case now goes automatically to a three-member panel of judges who will decide whether to make the order permanent and whether to fine YouTube as much as US$119,000 (euro91,000) for each day the video was viewable, said Rubens Decousseau Tilkian.'"

No problem, no need to worry.
Please provide me your IP and I'll gladly forward it to the authorities so they can fix that.

I think it was the editing. That or she is missing out on something.

And almost all of it seems to have taken place at public places (i.e. beaches, parties etc.)
I believe that wearing skimpy clothing to the beach is considered very scandalous in Brazil.

You obviously watch too much porn.
They are having sex. Just because there's no close up of penetration, don't mean it ain't happening. You kids today are spoiled, what with your internets and your bittorrents... back in my day, we used to walk ten miles up the hill backwards in the snow, just to catch a peek at a bra in the Sears catalog, and it would give us stroking material for a week.
