That article is a good explainer in what's happening and why its happening. As well as is was on the cards to happen eventually.
@ecksmc 🤔 indeed.
“I think he is realizing Brazilians are not going to take to the streets because X is suspended,”
comeuppance
a person's bad luck that is considered to be a fair and deserved punishment for something bad that they have done
@Dane few thousand demonstrators, clad in the yellow-and-green colors of Brazil’s flag, poured onto Av. Paulista. References to the ban on X and images of Musk abounded.
“Thank you for defending our freedom,”
No doubt Musk will think that the whole crowd that day were there for him and not independence day.... A small amount were 😆 but yeah can't see there being any massive rally happening
This is just yet another example of Musk "selectively" going against *something* to fit his narrative
Brazil requires certain international companies appoint an in-country representative that can be contacted by the government and, in some cases, held responsible for a company’s failures to comply with the law. India, Vietnam, Turkey, and Russia all have similar laws.
