Brazil banned Twitter because Musk thought he could just ignore their laws.
The was hilarious ๐
Well, TikTok refused to abide by the law saying they had to be sold to a US company, which is why they're being banned, so it's technically the same situation, if for different reasons.
Not really, Brazil's demand was to stop spreading seditious material and to engage with their court system.
The American law is to bar them from the market. Reducing that to "follow the law" is a bit disingenuous.
