the brazilification of the world economy is real

Taxa das Brusinha™️, agora na Europa.

(the whole world is now Brazil etc etc etc)

[@levelsio @levelsio]

As someone who lives in Portugal which already stops every single package you get from outside EU with no exceptions for a decade or more:

I can tell you how this will go

From now on if you receive a package from outside EU, it'll first go missing for weeks and nobody will know where it is, then you'll receive an email from your country's customs agency

They'll make you login to some extremely unusable and outdated web portal which breaks half the time and where you have to classify your shipment in one of 10,000 confusing category codes

Depending on the category code you'll pay a different tax rate, sometimes it's 5% sometimes it's 60%

Then you have to pay the customs duty in some archaic way that will also be broken half the time

And then you'll finally receive your package from outside EU after months

Experiencing this for a few times you'll realize you will never ever try to order or receive anything from outside EU ever because the ordeal is too painful and expensive

I get asked a lot here by people from US to test out new products (like the guy who made the Minimal Phone) and it's just literally impossible for me to receive it even for testing. I tried to classify it as samples for testing but you need to go through a bureaucratic process of insane lengths to get that through so I just gave up

Realistically all this does is make Europeans live even more in the stone ages, as now they can't use modern AI, nor get modern products from outside EU because it'll be too much hassle to order

There’s no question that ChatGPT has created value. But the costs are now becoming real to many customers for the first time: pricier devices, tighter component availability and an industry now shaped around serving AI infrastructure rather than making products cheaper & better.

🚨🇧🇷 Serasa database allegedly up for sale

Serasa is a Brazilian credit bureau and financial information company used for credit analysis, identity, and consumer risk data.

A threat actor claims to be selling a 2.5TB Serasa database allegedly containing data on 250M+ Brazilians.

Alleged exposed data includes:

• CPF numbers
• Full names
• Dates of birth
• Mother’s names
• Emails
• Phone records
• Addresses
• Credit and income-related datasets
• LGPD opt-out / marketing fields

Details:

• Target: Serasa
• Country: Brazil
• Sector: Credit / Financial data
• Size: 2.5TB
• Claimed volume: 250M+ Brazilians
• Price: $2,000

Claim is unverified. Brazilian users and organizations should monitor for identity fraud, phishing, and misuse of CPF-linked personal data.

Os alimentos disponíveis no supermercado estão tão ruins que chegamos num ponto em que estamos comprando café em grão e fazendo iogurte em casa.

E nem somos hippies.

Confirmo que há todos os indícios típicos de bloqueio nacional determinado pela Anatel no dia de hoje para https://t.co/cw6yji79x7. Nas quartas-feiras, geralmente em dias de jogos de futebol, a agência de reúne com as maiores operadoras do país e determina o bloqueio de endereços utilizados pelos TV boxes. A lista de endereços bloqueados é mantido em sigilo pela agência, algo que tenho criticado em artigos, entrevistas e palestras.

Os indícios são:

1) O fato de ocorrer numa quarta-feira e pelo relato desse internauta que me acionou, ontem o problema não ocorria.

2) O fato do IP 4.228.31.149 para qual aponta o FQDN https://t.co/cw6yji79x7 estar bloqueado somente na Claro, Vivo, Nio, Algar e TIM e *NÃO* em ISPs regionais conforme posso testar com o comando globalping.

3) O fato de outros endereços IP contidos no mesmo bloco /24 serem normalmente alcançáveis, o que exclui problemas de roteamento já que todos os IPs entre 4.228.31.1 e 4.228.31.255 necessariamente pertencem a mesma rota (vide exemplo 4.228.31.3).

Recomendo que os afetados entrem em contato com seus provedores mostrando evidências coletadas a partir de sua casa ou empresa e exijam uma resposta do porquê não havia rota para 4.228.31.149 na noite de 10/06/26 enquanto para 4.228.31.3 há.

Nesse thread a seguir, colocarei algumas informações úteis sobre o problema.

não existe um Senhor iFood que escolhe a forma final do produto, mas sim dezenas de líderes de times com focos diferentes, que canibalizam o valor do produto final para mover as próprias métricas. é o destino default de toda organização grande.

@leonardoalt also people in the replies

[Caio D @c_aio__]

@leonardoalt also couple folks in the reply don't understand that the matter is NOT that cpf is private (secret) or not – it's not, obviously – but has become the core of a system to stich your identity and essentially track ppl around pretty much everything

[Caio D @c_aio__]

@leonardoalt agree. refusing to provide cpf means getting services denied sometimes b/c systems simply won't move forward without it (happened trying a restaurant reservation last week). together with lei felca, which requires age certification, makes things seem more totalitarian than ever
