[globalsouthdata] Sign-on: Big Techs are interfering with Brazilian elections. Authorities must act.

[lua at ctrlz.org.br]

Dear friends,

I'm writing to invite you and your organizations to sign an open letter raising the alarm on how Big Techs are interfering with Brazil's 2026 elections, the largest democratic exercise in the Western Hemisphere this year. Since March, independent researchers and civil society groups have documented a disturbing pattern: unlabelled deepfakes, political ads funded from foreign accounts, AI-generated misogynistic and racist attacks against women candidates, and arbitrary mass suppression of legitimate electoral speech.

With the October 25 runoff approaching, we believe the international community must speak now. The letter calls on Brazilian authorities to enforce the electoral rules and on UN and Inter-American human rights mechanisms to monitor the situation.

Please, sign here:https://cryptpad.fr/form/#/2/form/view/4Nd9bV6Oxnn8PtopQbMIy2JSK6QhQz-IrrMdF0l3WRE/

All the best,
