On a Monday afternoon in Brasília, one of Brazil's most consequential legal institutions found itself suddenly silenced — its networks dark, its staff locked out, its proceedings suspended. The Federal District Court fell victim to what sources describe as a coordinated cyberattack, though officials have chosen their words carefully, speaking only of 'technical instability' while investigators search for the breach. In a society where justice moves through digital corridors, the fragility of those corridors becomes, itself, a matter of justice.
