Brazil’s Ministry of Justice demanded the removal of 348 Instagram accounts belonging to bloggers who advertised betting websites. Together, these profiles have more than 150 million followers. The agency did not specify who received the request or how many accounts have already been removed.
On November 9, the agency also identified 2,207 Facebook pages with an audience of 7.5 million followers, 18 Telegram groups with 182,000 members, and another 998 websites linked to betting promotion.
In total, since September 25, Brazilian authorities have identified more than 60,000 websites, pages, accounts, and groups used to promote betting. These include:
- 51,611 websites;
- 6,596 Facebook pages;
- more than 900 Instagram profiles;
- 1,442 Telegram groups;
- 127 TikTok profiles.
For comparison, there were 20,318 such resources on October 9. Their number nearly tripled in one month.
As a reminder, Brazil banned sports betting, online casinos, and their advertising on September 25. Earlier, we wrote about the blocking of 506 betting websites and nearly 2,000 Google Ads ads. Authorities are now also reviewing social media accounts used to attract players.
