Follows the full:
"Tonight, a Brazilian judge blocked the WhatsApp to more than 100 million users of the application in the country.
We are working hard to reverse this situation. Until then, the Facebook Messenger remains active and can be used for messaging.
This is a sad day for the country. To date Brazil has been an important ally in the creation of an open internet. Brazilians are always among the most passionate in sharing their online voices.
I am shocked that our efforts to protect personal data could result in punishment of all Brazilians of WhatsApp users by the extreme decision of a single judge.
We hope that the Brazilian justice quickly reverse this decision. If you are Brazilian, please make your voice heard and help his government to reflect the will of the people.
