i sure hope thats sarcasm. he just threw out random thoughts with no actual way to achieve anything. laws cant actually to force multinational companies to do anything. how would they be enforced after all? you'd first need a world government for any laws to apply. and no chance of that happening within the foreseeable future.

  You can force multinational corporations to do things by not allowing them into your own market if they don’t follow certain rules. The US does it all the time, so does Europe.

    > The US does it all the time, so does Europe. Please give me an example of a corporation getting serious issues from any government for actions they took on foreign soil.

      Companies have got into trouble for violating sanctions. There are plenty of examples for that.

      GDPR is a huge one every user of this site should know.

        GDPR is a law, not a corporation and is a recent attempt at enforcing something, and spectacularly failed at that. Almost all eu-foreign enterprises ignore it entirely or don't actually adhere to it, even after showing a big pop-up claiming they do. And the multinational corporations just started to hide their tracking better. For an obvious example: chrome includes a 24 bit unique identifier per installation to track you and instead of saving your PII they just build a nrr to "predict" them. Such a success, indeed.

        What’s your exact point? Are you trying to say that laws don’t work and nothing can be done so it shouldn’t be tried? I don’t understand what you are trying to say.

  Turkey can’t enter the EU because it doesn’t meet the EU’s standard for human rights. Standards work.

    Turkey isnt a multinational corporation in case you didn't notice. Nor did they change because of it, so your point makes no sense whatsoever
