FB surely has a physical office in London, why not make that office the new UK headquarter, and move UK users under, well... UK terms?
- sbarre 6y agoBecause moving them under California terms is better for Facebook? If there's no legal requirement for them to operate under UK terms - especially if those are worse than California - why would they?
