This unified guide aims to clarify the role of the Brazilian Superior Electoral Court (TSE) in combating disinformation, providing detailed information about its actions and the relevant concepts underpinning the Court's Resolutions. It explains these concepts in light of the jurisprudence of both the TSE and the Brazilian Supreme Federal Court (STF). The document seeks to deepen the understanding of the TSE's role in fostering a more informed and secure electoral environment.

Additionally, it includes commentary on specific articles of the TSE Resolutions, comparing them with Brazilian and foreign laws, as well as relevant international cases from the Inter-American Court of Human Rights and the European Court of Human Rights. This approach aims to foster a wide and comprehensive understanding of the TSE's regulations.
