They pulled out of one of the smallest markets they could find, as a PR move to "show that they mean business". They had three restaurants in the entire country, and they pulled out because of the financial crisis, not because of taxes. That's hardly a sign that they would pull out of France, Germany or even Denmark. If by "international technology" you mean "blatant disregard for privacy", then good riddance. We don't need that sort of "technology".
