- ygjb 11y agoClearly you have a nuanced legal argument to support the notion that a company that does business in a jurisdiction doesn't have to adhere to their laws? What about companies that have subsidiaries or employees in the jurisdiction of those laws? It's not as simple as you make it sound.
