the reason X is banned rn here in Brazil, is BC Musk fired all the Brazilian staff in hopes that X could operate above our legal system. But in Brazil any foreign business NEED to have a Brazilian legal representative to operate legally. That means that if he had appointed someone by now, the ban wouldn't be necessary, and X will probably be up an running again as soon as he do it.

Please don't paint this whole deal to look like as if it was about "censorship". This is a case of national souvereignty. Foreign corporations that desire to operate in our territory need to respect the same laws as everyone else here, and that includes being responsible for what happens in that particular social network.

Telegram, WhatsApp and others tried the same in the past, but they did not went that far as Musk, because he is trying to use this case as marketing for his own gain.

Please don't do his job for him.
