Can the EU just Thanos snap Microsoft out of existence with a quadrillion euro fine?

That would be a sure fire way to get Microsoft to pull completely out of Europe leaving thousands of companies without support and a heafty unpaid fine setting on the table.

It would actually be beneficial for Microsoft to abandon the server farms and offices leaving workers with an email stating the situation and their new job status.

You think they make no profits in Europe? Why would they be here if they didn't?

[–] NucleusAdumbens@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I think it's fair to assume their profits are less than 1 quadrillion euros

Heh, didn't take that number literally I guess
