Every business has to follow local law. Same held for companies doing business with South Africa under apartheid rule in the 1980s.
Pretending there isn't a moral dimension to it just because "it's business" is absurd.

- zhte415 9y ago> Every business has to follow local law. To a degree. Every business has to follow the law of their head office and umbrella group. When local law is inconsistent with head office law, then a grey area is entered. If this grey area is not reconcilable, then head office wins and local office capitulates or shuts down if pushed to that extent.
