there is no right to any goods or services provided by a foreign entity. none.
prove me wrong by providing a link to a law, treaty, or other official rule that says otherwise. i'll wait.
- whatshisface 6y agoLet's just think practically about what could happen. Suppose the chief executive has a grudge against an individual person. He or she bans them from owning anything produced overseas. Legal or not, I think we can agree that shouldn't be possible.
- vorpalhex 6y agoThat has nothing to do with the current case. You violate US law by spying on citizens, you get banned. As a foreign company you don't get a right to a trial. The US Government does not have a relationship with your users - you do. If you get banned, your users have a right to sue you to recoup their costs. The US Government does not owe your users anything. If you get banned from the supermarket for not wearing a mask, the supermarket doesn't owe anything to whoever you were making dinner for.
