    Oh, X is banned in Brazil and Australia? Or what happened in those countries?

        10% of global earnings? Isn’t it losing money? Makes it sound like they’re paying him.

          Earnings is different from profits.

      X is forbidden from offering services in Brazil until and unless it complies with the local courts (the company refused an order to suspend some accounts, then wouldn’t appoint a local representative as Brazilian law requires). Local ISPs are required to block it. I don’t know about Australia.

        Thanks! Last I heard X chose to comply with Brazil’s requirements.
