Wix, an Israeli company that provides a platform to create websites, has taken down two sites belonging to exiled Brazilian activist and blogger Allan dos Santos, the press in the South American country is reporting.
Santos is considered a supporter of President Jair Bolsonaro, who is locked in a bitter political feud ahead of the October elections, not only with the opposition but also with the likes of the country’s Supreme Federal Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes.
It was Moraes who – as part of his campaign against “fake news and misinformation” – ordered Santos arrested. He left Brazil last year and is now in the United States.
The two websites were taken down on a report Wix received from Sleeping Giants Brazil. A branch has been active in Brazil since 2020, and declares its purpose to be fighting against monetization of hate speech, misinformation, and “undemocratic content.”
According to Brazilian media, the hosting platform reacted on Tuesday to a notification sent by Sleeping Giants Brazil. However, Santos himself clarified on his GETTR profile that it was actually removed as a result of a court order.
The Brazilian police consider him a fugitive and have requested his extradition from the US, despite not issuing a red Interpol notice for his arrest.
In October 2021, Moraes ordered Brazil’s central bank to freeze bank accounts belonging to Santos and prevent him from accessing his own money, at the same time blocking transfers from abroad.
“The website and account in question were removed and blocked due to a specific court order resulting from a legal process that is being processed in court secrecy and, for this reason, we are prevented from providing more information,” Wix said in a statement this week.

Santos previously operated Terça Livre, a news site that gained prominence during the 2018 presidential election won by Bolsonaro. It was considered the largest conservative site outside the US but was forced to shut down last October, amid censorship and financial pressure.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
