While any forced retreat by musk, is something to celebrate on it's own, it should be muted by the fact that "The X service remains available to the people of Brazil, the platform said on Saturday." seems like they're just closing their offices so they don't get fined or arrested, but will keep their access operational in Brazil, for now. Brazil can always shut it down any time it likes, and hope they do, but Musk closes offices and lays off employees literally all the time, literally on a whim. This is nothing for him. Sucks to be his employee, but again, anyone still choosing to be in his employ knowing the cunt fascist he's become, deserves all the bad that's coming to them.

Aaah then it is not a retreat it is just an excuse to fire people and whine about regulations
