Lula stated that the day represented a victory for democracy and described the end of the 6x1 scale as a civilizational achievement. He said that the measure met the will of people who took to the streets — among them women, men, workers, teenagers, and students — and that the change added a page to the Constitution, making it, in his assessment, more citizen-oriented.

Rodrigo Constantino stated that Lula defended, in an interview with Globo, reducing the age of criminal responsibility for heinous crimes. Constantino classified the position as an electoral shift, which he attributed to pressure from Flávio and polls, and stated that the PT has always opposed the reduction, advocating for socio-educational measures and downplaying the responsibility of adolescents who commit crimes. According to Constantino, ten days before the election, the candidate changed his rhetoric to avoid being cornered. He also claimed that the majority of society supported the punishment of minors for heinous crimes and that the government only acknowledged this position because it was losing. Regarding the interview, he said it revealed a dissonance with the government's base and an attempt by Lula to present himself as renewed after years of mismanagement. #Lula #Eleições2023 #Criminalidade (translated)
Verônica Domingues criticized what she described as Lula's intention to lower the age of criminal responsibility. She stated that the measure would be a simplistic response to a complex issue and labeled it as "penal populism." Domingues said she did not support impunity for heinous crimes but opposed incarcerating adolescents alongside adults in prisons that, according to her, were already overcrowded. In her assessment, lowering the age of criminal responsibility before addressing social and racial inequalities in Brazil would deepen these problems, including within the prison system. She also stated that Black and poor adolescents would be more affected by the measure, while white and wealthy youths would escape punishments to the same extent. Domingues criticized those who, according to her, accuse of racism those who point out this risk and said that experts, and not just public opinion, should guide the debate. The author further lamented that sectors of the left supported the proposal and asserted that advocating for the reduction of the age of criminal responsibility was incompatible with being leftist in Brazil. She acknowledged that heinous crimes provoked outrage and a desire for revenge but urged that the issue be discussed without reactionary speeches. #MaioridadePenal #DesigualdadeSocial #PopulismoPenal (translated)

Sucumba Games reported that the federal government signed today the decree that regulated the Legal Framework for Electronic Games, a law enacted by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in 2024 and which, according to the publication, was awaiting regulation. The company stated that the law originated from a project presented in 2021 by federal deputy Kim Kataguiri and underwent changes during its passage through Congress. According to Sucumba Games, the law aimed to strengthen the Brazilian gaming industry by recognizing the development of games as an activity related to innovation, economy, and culture, as well as allowing eligible companies to seek public incentives for innovation, research, and culture. The publication also pointed out that the regulation dispensed with prior state authorization to develop and market games, without dismissing the classification and other applicable laws. The company added that the measures included support for professional training and the creation of training spaces, in addition to the regulation of customs procedures and import taxes on equipment such as devkits. It also mentioned the use of games in educational activities, professional training, simulations, therapies, and communication. Sucumba Games further stated that the law provided protection for children and adolescents, mechanisms for reporting and contesting penalties in youth games with user interaction, and the registration of games with the INPI to enhance the protection of industrial property. #JogosEletrônicos #IndústriaDeGames #Inovação (translated)
