\u00a0The Marco Civil da Internet was appointed as a world reference for the legislation that should deal with the world wide web, during the\u00a0NetWorld\u00a0<\/a>\u2013 Global Multistakeholder Meeting on the Future of Internet Governance, which brought together governments, companies, experts and activists in discussions about the future of the Internet.<\/p>\n

The principles of the law \u2013 especially the guarantee of net neutrality, freedom of expression and the privacy of users \u2013 were established to maintain the open character of the internet.<\/p>\n

Network neutrality provides that the traffic of any data must be done with the same quality and speed, without discrimination, be it data, videos, etc. If this neutrality were not guaranteed, the internet could work like cable TV: citizens would pay a certain amount to access social networks and another to access networks and videos, for example.<\/p>\n

Another principle is the guarantee of freedom of expression. Today, social networks, such as Facebook and Youtube, can take down photos or videos that use images of works protected by copyright or that contravene company rules. For example, photos of members of the Marcha das Sluts with their breasts on display or videos showing parts of TV news broadcasts from the broadcasters have already been removed from the air without the creators of these contents giving an opinion on the restriction on broadcasting. With the Marco Civil da Internet, these companies are no longer responsible for the content generated by third parties and will not be able to remove them from the air without a court order, except in cases of nudity or sexual acts of a private nature.<\/p>\n

According to Article 19 of the legislation, \u201cin order to ensure freedom of expression and prevent censorship, the internet application provider can only be held civilly liable for damages resulting from content generated by third parties if, after a specific court order, not take steps to, within the scope and technical limits of its service and within the specified period, make the content identified as infringing unavailable, except for the legal provisions to the contrary\u201d.<\/p>\n

The framework also guarantees the privacy of internet users, by establishing that personal information and access records can only be sold if the user expressly authorizes the commercial operation. Currently, the data is used by large companies to obtain more advertising revenue, as they have access to details about Internet users' preferences and options and end up selling targeted products.<\/p>\n

In addition to the rights considered principles of the internet in Brazil, 13 others were established by the \u201cInternet Constitution\u201d, as the rule came to be called. The inviolability of intimacy and private life and compensation in case of violation; the non-suspension of the internet connection, except for debit directly resulting from its use; maintenance of the contracted quality of the internet connection are some of the users' rights.<\/p>\n

Internet users must, according to the law, have clear and complete information about the contracts for the provision of services and the collection, use, storage, treatment and protection of personal data, as well as having guaranteed accessibility, taking into account the physical and motor, perceptual, sensory, intellectual and mental effects of the user.<\/p>\n
