About Débora Medeiros
I'm a Brazilian student of Social Communication and also a writer and a blogger. My greatest passion in my professional field is radiojournalism, along with community media. There's something in common between these two subjects and citizen journalism such as practiced in sites like Global Voices Online: they all make the information flow a lot easier and reach people around the world, raising awareness and uniting groups with the same problems. So, I'm glad I can help both here and as a voluntary translator on Global Voices em Português :)

Brazil: Justice aims at Twitter and hits innocent bloggers
If the Brazilian Electoral Justice is not quite sure about what the Internet is, their latest blunder proves that Twitter is completely alien to them. When trying to take down a fake mayoral candidate's profile on the popular network, they managed to take offline a blog that had nothing to do with the story. Mind you: They could have taken down the whole Twitter website instead.
