Elon Musk fought the law. The law appears to have won.

X, Musk’s social media platform, has backed down in its fight with the Brazilian judiciary, after complying with court orders that had blocked users in the country from accessing X.

The platform bowed to one of the key demands made by Brazil’s supreme court by appointing a legal representative in the country. It also paid outstanding fines and took down user accounts that the court had ordered to be removed on the basis that they threatened the country’s democracy, the New York Times reported.

However, the battle is not quite over. The supreme court said X had not filed the proper documentation showing that it had appointed Rachel de Oliveira Conceicao as its Brazilian representative. It gave the company five days to present documents validating her appointment.

Yeah, but unless less they're from a Portuguese or Spanish language speaking country their keyboard won't have a ç or a ~ and it's a pain in the arse to type that name correctly in a keyboard without those such as an UK keyboard (as I know from experience).

So give them a break.

Whenever I have to type a word similar to that, I normally google it, which finds the correct spelling and then copy-paste it into whatever I am doing.

That really isn't an excuse you know. They are supposed to be professionals.

But it's like really hard. Like, takes dozens of seconds. Dozens! You cannot expect that level of effort just because it's someone's job!
