    You think Microsoft has no assets in Europe? Asset seizure is a sure fire way to get paid when companies refuse to cooperate.

        No, they do have assets in Europe.

        Oh no, it’s the consequences of my actions by putting all my eggs in one basket and giving a corporation incredible leverage.

        Maybe they should derisk their infrastructure then…

      If it’s a choice between abandoning assets or going bankrupt I think they’d choose abandoning assets. The only exception to that rule is if they have the majority of their company there and that’s just not the case being an American company.
