    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.
