Good on brazil keeping it's laws just by arresting some figure head executive for a company that runs a video hosting site! Fantastic victory for great justice!

The law bans campaign ads that “offend the dignity or decorum” of a candidate.

Why do politicians have such a need to feel special? Most of them have no dignity or decorum to start with anyway.

Interesting,I wonder why CEO's aren't held that accountable here in SA.

Take the telkom case for example, while the current CEO and company is held liable for past anti competitive behavior what happens to the actual CEO in charge at the time who made those decisions?Did he just walk away with his fat check for F'ing up the telecoms market in SA or was he at least even given a slap on the wrist,In my opinion he/she should be made to pay.
