A judge in #RioGrandedoSul ordered that the identities of those responsible for the #SleepingGiantsBrasil be disclosed. The #SleepingGiants was created in the #UnitedStates little after #Trump's election with the purpose of informing big businesses and companies if ads showing up on their websites belong to hate groups so that they can be removed and filtered.

Over time, the Sleeping Giants revealed to be an arm of the left by only targeting rightwing, conservative groups, and they called special attention in Brazil for the speed with which their reports took effect, making 130 brands commit themselves to remove certain ads since May 18th, when the Sleeping Giants started operating in #Brazil.

According to the Brazilian constitution, it's not a crime to be anonymous, and the Sleeping Giants' actions can be seen as a call for boycott, and neither a boycott nor a call for it are a crime either.

The problem is that some of the Sleeping Giants' tweets contain statements that are considered defamation, and thus, and once the targets file a lawsuit, their anonymity is no longer a right. Although their identity can be revealed to the victims, it's not clear if it will go public, since this decision is up to the on the judge.

Good chances are that we can have a good surprise if we ever know who's behind them.
