> but in Brazil, the requests sent to X (Twitter) have no legal basis, that is, they are illegal by nature.

That request was made by Brazil's supreme court.

Should we assume some guy in the internet named diegoholiveira has more knowledge of Brazilian law than the Brazilian Supreme Court?

That’s a retired minister of the Brazilian Supreme Court. With a quick search you can find many others experts saying the same.

Please check the current date on your machine. Your "news" is about something that happened 4 years ago. Quite "old" for "news", huh?

It’s the same secret process. It’s being around since 2019.

Do you have an actual argument to refute him with? Or just appeals to authority?

Baseless appeals at that, given that these judge-kings are in their position by political appointment, not by being tested and filtered by concurso público like the real judges in this country.

diego_moita does not care about an argument. I show him an argument from the retired minister of the Supreme Court and he says: “this is old news”, ignoring that the current process is the same since 2019.

My opinion: he agree with the decision knowing that it’s destroying our legal system. You have people on right and left saying this (the brave ones, unfortunately it’s just few people that have courage to criticize the Supreme Court).

That’s ok. Brazil always fail in have solid institutions since 1889. And he is ok with that.

Of course not. And I don't need to provide any, since there isn't anything here to "refute".

After all, he also didn't provide any argument to demonstrate that the decision was illegal. He just took an opinion out of his ass. His thesis was unsubstantiated from the start. This is a moot discussion.

From my ass? I show you an argument from the retired minister of the supreme court. That’s not enough or are you saying that he don’t understand the law?
