Are senators or pastors above the law?

More generally, one doesn't get to say "No, judge, I won't comply with your decision" without repercussions.

Seems like the repercussions are mainly on Brazilian citizens who cannot access free and open information.

Factually incorrect. Plenty of free and open information in other networks in Brazil and through its free press.
