That’s true, but there are some publicly available facts like Brazil’s content moderation team no longer exists.

And the policy team:

We could all pretend that you’d be able to deal with operating in hundreds of countries with a bare bones team, or we could speculate that it’s hard & opens you up to many legal problems.
I know that they're closing down their Brazil operations, that's literally the title of the article. The speculation I was referring to was your claim that they're really closing down because of financial considerations rather than their stated reason (e.g. unwillingness to comply with the judge's orders).
In TFA it says X told the court that they had failed to follow its orders previously because of operational deficiencies. GP is not really going out on a limb here.
The links I shared are from 2022/2023, long predating the current dispute. Financial considerations are most definitely at play.
That's speculation. You see how that's speculation, right?
