Brazilian constitution has ample protections for free speech. Here are the words which are literally written in the brazilian constitution:
> The expression of thought is free
> The expression of intellectual, artistic, scientific and communication activities are free, independently of censure or license
> The manifestation of thought, of creation, of expression and of information, in any form and by any process or vehicle, shall suffer no restriction
> Any and all censorship of political, ideological and artistic nature is prohibited
The problem is the judge who insists on "relativizing" what those words mean.

There are the same restrictions to privacy and speech where fear based decisions were made with the exact same excuses. It invalidates these laws in the end. Something precious is given up for marginal or even negative gain.
