How would Brazil’s police be able to tell if someone is using a VPN to access Twitter/X?

526 viewsOtherTechnology

I recently saw that in Brazil, people who use VPNs to access X/Twitter after the ban could apparently be fined. I’m no expert whatsoever, but isn’t the whole point of VPNs to encrypt all of your activity? If so, how would the offenders, so to speak, even be caught and fined??

It’s a connective game. They know you used Twitter before, they know this account is you, that account is still active and they can see you’re using a VPN.

It’s not hard proof but it might be good enough for a court order to search your devices.
