Good. Let's get the EU involved too. They also have a digital safety act. And Canada might be interested too. Let's get going from all sides and without lube.

Considering that Musk (and X) have already started to try and influence our elections, and even going so far as to post he is mulling ways to oust a British Prime Minister as well as boosting far right parties in Germany, and now Zuckerberg is following suit with turning his plattform more right-wing as well, I think it is very prudent not to simply "let you guys cook" and take proactive steps to make sure it stays an US only decision.

The Brazil Supreme Court will fall in line if any pressure is put on them by trump now I doubt he’s willing to fight for meta but it is something to consider

No they won't 😂

Publicly clapping back at trump threatening your nation is basically free positive PR.

Brazil import a lot more from US than US import from Brazil,

US would be harmed the most
