Regulamentação do streaming no Brasil: contexto, impactos e propostas

Abstract

This paper addresses the lack of streaming regulation in Brazil and its impact on the national audiovisual Market by exploring the emergence and popularization of such services, as well as the existing draft laws to regulate the segment and their progress. The paper was developed primarily based on reports, articles, opinions, and research from official bodies. Furthermore, because this is a constantly updated topic, it was also necessary to consult and reference news and other journalistic and social media publications that provide access to the most recent information on the topic. As a result, we understand that streaming services have become increasingly relevant both globally and in Brazil, thus increasing the urgency of their regulation in the country as a way to protect the national audiovisual sector and Brazilian cultural sovereignty. Despite the efforts of industry players and agencies to achieve a regulatory framework for streaming, it still faces resistance from the opposition and platforms, which has prevented its approval to date. However, it was emphasized that it is important that discussions on this matter continue and that demands for its approval continue.
