The block of YouTube on Brazil was suspended, until the ISPs explain why it's not possible to block a single video. They are expected to come up with a solution to do it. Good luck with that!

Now, there's another shameful development of this scandal. The Brazilian MTV - employer of Daniela Cicarelli - is suffering a massive boycott. They've received more than 20.000 emails (until yesterday) asking them to fire Cicarelli, because of the block caused by her stupid lawsuit. People are reaaaly pissed off at her, and they asked MTV to say something about it. Until yesterday, the channel remained in silence, while reprising old episodes of Cicarelli's show, "Beija Sapo".

Under pressure, they finally spoke. And they LIED!

The MTV Brazil blog published yesterday a clarification. Let me translate some parts of it:

"The process that caused the sentence to block the mentioned site (YouTube) wasn't filed by Daniela Cicarelli but by her boyfriend, Renato Malzoni Son."

That's a lie. At the very least, it's a conveniently twisted truth. All this nonsense began with the lawsuit filed by both Cicarelli and Malzoni on September, when they asked three sites to remove the video. It's true that the legal process that finally blocked YouTube was filed by Malzoni, but, c'mon, people, she has nothing to do with it?

That's what they're saying, and they want us to believe it. Cicarelli even had the nerve to say on TV that it's not her fault YouTube was blocked, because Malzoni filed the process... and that she didn't have to apolologize for anything!

Ok, we already know this girl is a moron, but I find MTV position outrageous. What they are saying is technically truth, but it's not real. The post with the clarification already has 1722 comments (should I say rants) from angry people.

And it doesn't end there. They complaint about the boycott, and call it "censure":

"The MTV BRAZIL always repudiated censorship and always fought for freedom of speech being recognized for its social campaigns and politics.

Therefore we cannot accept the kind of infuriated and offensive protests that have asked to boycott the host and the channel.

Although coated with legitimacy the majority of these protests in fact share the same poor values they want to fight because them incite the censure of a television channel. (...) The MTV BRAZIL is against all kind of freedom restriction. From blockade of sites to censure of people and TV channels."

From The Free Dictionary:

Censure: An official rebuke, as by a legislature of one of its members.
Boycott: To abstain from or act together in abstaining from using, buying, or dealing with as an expression of protest or disfavor or as a means of coercion.

Correct me if I'm wrong: censure is something imposed by law; boycott is a voluntary act, by choice. So, besides lying, they want to misinform and fool the public. Shame on you, MTV Brazil.
