Thank you for the bug, which helps us know how many people are annoyed by this issue.

We're working on a partial solution in bug 1331729, which will make it less likely that you will be redirected to Portuguese pages. You may also want to look into ways to adjust the "Accept-Language" header that you send to MDN and Google, to communicate that you prefer English.
