I agree, but this judge hasn't done this. And every time this Judge has acted its been overturned by a higher court. They've arrested an foreign citizen, seized funds for a separate company (albeit a subsidiary of the parent company), and misused another law to try and block access of it. All trying to get access to something Whatapp shouldn't have, and would hurt its global value if it implemented. As for democracy ~96% of Brazilians with access to a smartphone use WhatsApp as their primary method of communication. There was a fair bit of outrage in Brazil. Though I may personally be more aware of it as its the those with smart phones were the people I heard the most from.
