Rio de Janeiro Reports

[Vagabundo1]

I access the net over a for browser and use private internet access VPN.

This is really where we could use Eric Cartman.

P safe. I mean be have haha.

Bubba boy, call your office we need to rewrite the bubba boy guide.

At times the internet service in Rio is better than in the US. In some places infrastructure is relatively new. I have spent months at a time in Rio using bandwidth heavy applications at all hours without issue. In the US, ISPs routinely do maintenance late night or reduce bandwidth (they assume no one is online and can get away with charging you for reduced service levels).

However, it was a little bit of a challenge to get the initial service at the apartment. I would hear a knock on the door, paper is then thrown under the door and rapid running down the stairs. The paper said that the service tech had tried for 30 minutes to contact the apartment owner. This happened twice. My guess is he was visiting his girlfriend and charging the company for his time. Happened to see the local cable supervisor on the street that week and told him the story. He gave me an appointment time and they arrived right on time and were very apologetic.

Which service did you use? How much was it? Was the internet unlimited like the US or do you get a pay for gigs of data?

NET was the ISP. The internet was unlimited in terms of use. Like the US you pay more for higher speeds which I needed.

Current plan prices are listed and pretty obvious even if you do not speak Portuguese.

As a warning, I rented an apartment one time with internet access included. I was using it for VOIP as well. Right in the middle of an important call, the tenant next door did something to knock it out.

Sounds like you plan to get your own service which is recommended if your business depends on it.

You should also be aware that it is not unusual for Brazilians to try to piggyback on your connection (called gato).

If internet service is essential, you might want to consider a backup plan like a mobile hotspot or using your cell as a hotspot.

Since most people are working from home, I was curious to know how the internet service is in Brasil. Is it like the states where you get a bundle package (Tv, Phone, internet)? How reliable is it? Fast and reliable or does it go down every day like in the DR? Cost?

Since this pandemic may be in effect until next year, I was thinking (For a friend of course). Why not take a laptop to Copa and take advantage of the 5/1 rate for the next 6 months?

FYI: I was a frequent Rio visitor. From '05-'12 I was there anywhere from 3-4 x / a year. I would stay at the same apartment. I arrive in July '08, there was a warrant waiting for me with the door guy claiming neglect of child support. Got a lawyer, paternity test, squashed it rather quickly. They can sue if they file the necessary papers and serve you while in Brasil.

That's why I like to mix it up and keep them tutes off balance and guessing! Most don't know when I'm arriving or where I'm staying, and I never ever stay in the same place over and over. Hell, they may not even know I'm in town hahaha! Got one I went bareback with in the Philippines calling me. I told her dumb ass to stop calling me at 2 and 3 in the morning my time! Kept doing it, so I blocked her ass. At least she never said, "I'm pregnant, and it's your baby". Damn straight it isn't mine! I pulled out, and I pulled out on time!

They can't sue. , the cost and resources it would take would be extremely high and the process would be very complex and difficult. Brazil is not a Foreign Reciprocating Country, meaning the US doesn't enforce child support payments to that country. Now, if you fuck around and return to brasil, you may have legal trouble if a girl claims you got her pregnant and then didn't support the child.

FYI: Go to www.jusbrasil.com.br run a search on your name, it'll tell you if someone in Brasil is trying to sue you. Live & learn!

Side note: The girl has three kids from three different guys and none of them pay her squat!

Tonight I saw on a girl's instagram where she showed a video of herself surprising her parents in caxias. So I wonder if the airports are back open for everyone or is it only for brasilians? She didn't mention anything about being quarintined, so maybe that 14 day quarantine rule no longer exists.

[Bravo]

Thanks. I didn't know that someone in Brazil could sue someone in the states without being present. Likelihood of success I would say would be slim though. Just don't submit to paternity test? And like you said she's probably screwing other guys bareback too.

Unless you're bringing the girl to a short time hotel, couldn't a determined lawyer get all your personal info from the hotel you stayed at?

Unless you were accused of murdering someone and it was the police that was inquiring, I would have to say no on that one.

If you saw a chick that you really like walk into room 311 at the Beach Hotel, do you think it would be possible to get all of her personal information from the hotel? Same thing. You can't go around willy nilly giving out your clients' info.

That guy got this lady pregnant and she needs to sue him. Let me get this right. She got pregnant from a guy whose name she did not know, phone number, address, and where he is from she did not know? All she knows is that she got pregnant in that room on that date? Yes. Let me get his info to you right away.

And a Brazilian sim card needs passport or CPF.

[Kazeu]

Lawyer? Paternity test? Who. Is giving out enough personal information to a hooker to allow themselves to be sued?

[Mr Enternational]

If the girl is sharp and has a good attorney, that attorney can work with an attorney in the US to get you (including requiring a paternity test). Not common, but it has happened before.

What was the name of the termas that was in the shopping center fifteen years ago? I met a garota in there that said her father lived in Newport Beach. Newport Beach is a very high-end town in Southern California. So it does happen if she was not lying.

Termas Luomo!

[Big Boss Man]

Easy to say but lets say that baby's a girl. That's your daughter. How would you feel if your young beautiful virgin daughter becomes a prostitute and bangs old fat ugly mongers.
