USA next. If we can ban TikTok, we can do Twitter too!
Ugh, TikTok isn't banned in the US...
No, but they have been trying to ban it.
Until they do, your statement doesn't make sense lol
As someone who hates corporate social media (and TikTok especially), I can’t figure out if banning TikTok is a legit security issue or racist. I’d love to see it go, but I can’t seem to form an opinion on the matter despite reading up on it several times.
Hopefully it is first brick in the wall, after Brazil finds it did not collapse due to absence of twitter
For everyone that interpreted this as saying that X will be banned here: It won't. X will still work. But all X staff in Brazil were laid off.
...and nothing of value was lost
Except the jobs of all those Brazilian employees
You're right, it was a bit too off the cuff of a remark. Though I can't imagine they've had fun there since the Muppet took over. Can you imagine being the poor bastard who had to tell Phony Stark about this whole thing? They probably had to remind him that their office existed only to have him sack everyone.
Congrats, Brazil!!
Brazil is based for once
How do we get some of them Brazilian content orders here in the states?
goodbye removed!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Does this harm twitter in any way?
I mean, if they are still reachable and usable in Brazil, they can still serve ads to those users and so it seems their business doesnt change much?
But there must have been some advantage for twitter in having an office there, otherwise they wouldnt have opened it in the first place.
Lucky Brazil!
