“having issued €4.04 billion in fines since May 2018.

Easy way for a tiny country to make free money off the hard work of big tech companies.
Europe does not have even one tech company worth over $1 Trillion dollars. so they content themselves with stealing the money of mostly big US tech companies with garbage fines based on greedy money grubbing laws.
Is it even worth being in Ireland at all?

Not with their current anti-American leadership, who is actually considering removing the low corporate tax incentive so that they can “harmonize” with the higher tax rates of the bigger countries that rule over them.

I had a few ancestors who weren’t welcome at Rock Ridge!

along the Mojave-Tropico Road in Rosamond,
approximately one-quarter mile north Of Dawn Road.

Oh, and on the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank.
