> What could Brazil do?

* Request extradition

* Fine local advertisers

* Confiscate any payments

* Harrass the ISPs who carry the service

* Harrass local users

I do nor advocate any of the above

But the idea a business that trades internationally can say "fuck you" to a nation state is childish

There can be terrible consequences

Ultimately, the only thing Brazil can do is take action on entities inside of Brazil. So yes, Rumble could just say on and put the ball back in Brazil's court for them to block Rumble or go after Brazilian advertisers.

I don't know, but the end result of that sounds a whole lot similar to what Rumble's doing right now. Therefore, I'd say that for other websites in similar positions, they could just send Brazil's mad demandz to the junk pile.
