If it makes you feel better, losing Brazil for Starlink and Twitter is something Elmo might legitimately never financially recover from.
There’s a lot of people in Brazil, they almost all usesd twitter, and it took like 24hrs of not being able to use Twitter before they all started joining bluesky or Threads. Once a social media user tries a new service, they might never come back.
Even if Elmo appoints someone as a Brazilian representative, he’s got millions in fines to pay now. And I’m pretty sure that number keeps going up till he pays. But his companies can’t exist without Brazil’s user base
Plus, the next step would be issuing a warrant for the arrest of the person responsible. I’d welcome a warrant for Elon, as it would limit his travels a lot.
That’s why companies need an office and a rep to operate in Brazil, to have someone who can’t pass the buck.
Brazil asked for records of the coup planners, Elon likes them, so instead of complying he shut down all offices and just kind of left…
Which doesn’t really work and was always going to end exactly like this.
The reason companies can just have a rep, is a concession by Brazil. Without one it falls on the CEO, which is Elon. So a warrant is possible for Twitter not turning over the data on coup planners and for his Internet stuff because he said they won’t comply. Which is why/how Brazil froze that companies funds for something twitter did.
It’s all strictly above board legally. It’s just for some reason people listen to elons version where he’s perfect and being persecuted

Yeah, trying to evade the law… Let’s see how that works out for him. I’ll gladly see him eat crow and be held to account.
