Tech giants clash with Brazil over 'fake news' bill.

Brazil's Congress is considering a bill that would require internet companies to report illegal content on their sites, which has sparked backlash from major tech companies such as Google and Facebook. The bill would create penalties for tech companies that fail to crack down on fake news and other illegal materials on their platforms, but companies have warned that it could be used for censorship and endanger the availability of free content services. The fate of the bill is uncertain due to resistance from conservative and Evangelical lawmakers who have sided with big tech firms against the government and its allies.
