There are large companies which do take a moral stance on this and pay taxes as normal, so it is certainly a valid strategy. An example is bet365 in the UK who (according to the little knowledge I have, I used to work there) don't engage in tax avoidance schemes. The irony is that a gambling company takes a moral stance on tax whereas these big Silicon Valley companies who try to portray a liberal image are the most aggressive tax dodgers.
