Also Ireland is off the hook, if you remember they also disagreed with the original ruling and maintained that they were not offering special deals to various companies like Apple. Instead they benefited from the massive influx of liquidity in their banking system, and all that implies on their domestic economy.
They have since reportedly closed down this option in their tax code because of optics, and they probably don’t need it so much anymore.
