The president cancelled a diplomatic presidents honorary visit to USA
Tough speech in ONU from a state chief against surveillance over civilians, companies, and the top state politicians, including the president
* International companies will need to keep the data of brazilian citizens in datacenters domestically located.
* More Infrastructure investments: Optical cables all over.. so what doesnt need to pass through US will not route there
(also a bunch of satelites)
* When we have a choice, comercially we will probably avoid
buying anything from US
* We are not in XX century anymore, the industrial age is gone, some other country will rise in this new age (information?), so USA will need to review its arrogant and interventionist movements, as it will lose more and more its position of top dog.. the seat is kind of empty now.
So the next USA president better watch out for its own attitude, cause you guys are more and more dependent of other commercial partner countries ;)
For historical reasons, brazil has a wound from the militar dictatorship (with the USA interventionism of the 60's helping on the cup-d'etate), with the current president(a woman) victim of torture by the military regime when she was a student (for fighting to free its country from dictatorship).. so thats why privacy is a pretty serious matter here, for every educated citizen..
Brazil is like they say over texas.. we are peaceful, and cool people.. but dont mess with Brazil
If she was so 'tough' why she did not grant asylum to >snowden??
This leak over the spy actions happened months after snowden has vanished in Russia..
Im sure if it was now, he may get it..
but also, dont know if it would be diplomatic proportional.. since i dont think any councious president, with a big country in hands at least, would risk commercial relations, because of that.. i dont think its very wise..
also its not a communisty party.. it has very little of the left wing.. its more like the french Hollande kind of left (literally none)
I was not saying that Brazil was something to fear about.. only, that the times are tough now.. everybody need every help they can ..
even the richiest and independent countries
Bolivia's plane was stopped on the way back through Europe under suspicion that it had been sent for Snowden. I don't think it has been shown that Bolivia was making an attempt.

No It DID NOT.
Snowden Tried All south americas country. And only Bolivia tried to send a plane but was stopped at Europe.
Serious Do you really believe or you are paid to defend Our 'glorious' Govt.
Brazilian Here too
I dont need to get paid to defend what is right
It doesnt matter who is in charge, but at least in this particular event it was the only country who oficially stand against this mass surveillance...
Remember France and Germany? oh they were so quiet..
Defend what is right even if it has serious implications in international affairs with such important and powerful country..
This was actually good to watch, didnt you feel good about it? She said what every one of us think about it, but was afraid to say so..
(It was like watch that nerdy, skinny guy stand against the big bully one)
Im not defending a particular government, im defending a particular position, and it was the right thing to do!
