Faleu hoje meu amigo , alguém insanamente incrível, inteligente e generoso, e que sabia reconhecer os próprios erros. Vou sentir muita falta. 💔 Danilo era também o patrono da privacidade no Brasil, alguém que lutou pela aprovação da LGPD intensamente, etc etc

O parque augusta é maneiro demais, fruto da luta para preservar um dos poucos lugares que a especulação imobiliária não fodeu. Uma galera muito maneira tocou essa luta. Você chega lá, tem gente de toda idade, se divertindo, malhando, tomando uma breja. twitter.com/cardoso122/sta…
