Is that actually even true? Google already has an office in Berlin. They can just buy more buildings.
Even if some local politician decides to block a construction plan, I’m not sure how they would stop Google from just buying existing stuff nearby their old office like Amazon does.
Google in Manhattan bought a building the size of an entire block essentially. It isn’t even what I would call a campus there either.
