Platform Transparency in Global Majority Countries: A Brazilian Perspective

In this episode, Tavishi and Shobhit speak with Francisco Brito Cruz of InternetLab on platform transparency in the Brazilian context. They look at how it is applied in global majority countries, ideas on risk assessments and data access mechanisms, independent regulators and what meaningful transparency would mean for an ordinary user. Francisco Brito Cruz [Chico] is the Executive Director and co-founder of InternetLab. He is a lawyer, holding a bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degree from the University of São Paulo Law School (FDUSP). Currently, he is a professor in the Digital Law postgraduate program at Fundação Getúlio Vargas Law School in São Paulo and a member of the Steering Committee of the World Movement for Democracy. InternetLab is an independent think tank focused on human rights and digital technologies. It is based in São Paulo, Brazil, and since 2014 works as a non-profit organization. As a human rights organization, they believe that the digital environment must be vibrant, creative, inclusive, protective to fundamental rights, an enabler to the quality of the democratic public sphere, and a promoter of social justice.
