US. Has basically the same law.
Edit: due to the patriot act passed hastily after 911, if the NSA tells a company to turn over data they have a documented way of doing it in which the company is never allowed to say it happened due to national security concerns.
That’s why there used to be a line in terms of service of various companies stating this had never happened. These lines functioned as a security canary, meaning if they were deleted that could mean the NSA did one of those requests and the company was forced to hand over some or all of its user data. This very site use to have such a canary. It no longer does.
So that’s some additional context. Kindly now resume the downvotes.

My worry would be the police or the military or both. I don’t know much about Brazil, less than I’d like to actually…so hopefully these are unfounded fears.
