RIO DE JANEIRO: A Brazilian court on April 26 ordered the countrywide suspension of messaging app Telegram after its parent company failed to provide data sought by authorities on neo-Nazis operating on the network, officials said.
The move came after a spate of violent school attacks, at least one of them linked to exchanges on a group with anti-Semitic leanings.
