Brazil’s regulatory response to a July 2026 suicide of a 13-year-old girl during a coerced Discord livestream has centered on targeted enforcement rather than a platform-wide ban. The National Data Protection Authority (ANPD) ordered suspension of livestreaming and video features in mid-August, which Discord implemented while maintaining text, voice, and audio access. On August 27 the Attorney-General’s Office filed a BRL 500 million lawsuit seeking improved age verification, guardian-linked accounts for under-16s, local office requirements, and proportional moderation staffing. Discord continues dialogue with regulators and has appealed aspects of the order. These steps reflect a preference for compliance and structural remedies over outright blocking, with any full ban likely hinging on the lawsuit’s outcome and further incidents.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if use of Discord is banned within Brazil through a nationwide, legally effective government or court order and such ban is publicly confirmed between market creation and the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
A legally-effective nationwide court order requiring either the temporary suspension of Discord’s activities in Brazil or a prohibition on Discord operating in Brazil will qualify as a ban for the purposes of this market, regardless of whether technical implementation of the order has been completed.
An order that is stayed, suspended, or overturned before taking legal effect will not qualify. If a qualifying order takes legal effect, a subsequent stay, suspension, or reversal will not affect the market's resolution.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the Brazilian government, courts and Discord, however a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Brazil’s regulatory response to a July 2026 suicide of a 13-year-old girl during a coerced Discord livestream has centered on targeted enforcement rather than a platform-wide ban.
