How do they plan on collecting on that if the money is moved out of Brazilian accounts?

[davidsojevic]

According to the article, they've previously collected by just withdrawing money directly from X's and/or Starlink's local accounts:

> Brazil previously withdrew money for fines it levied against X from the accounts of X and Starlink at financial institutions in the country.

I saw that, but I was curious once X decides to pull the money from the accounts (assuming they can, which I guess is a big assumption at this point).

Starlink is still active in Brazil.

If the fines don't get paid those Space X ground stations can possibly go away too.

Could they get sued in a different country? I know when Argentina defaulted on bonds a naval ship was impounded in Ghana https://archive.is/Q7pB9

SpaceX has physical infrastructure in Brazil worth millions. They can start there, just confiscate the Starlink ground stations.
