Spotify was made up of 75% US employees since the moment it validated its value.
DICE is a failed studio. Battlefield 2042 was one of the worst AAA video game launches of all time (with Cyberpunk 2077 by Polish studio CD Projekt Red being another) after a rocky Battlefield V launch and there is no reason to believe they will come back from it.
King makes low quality micro-transaction-riddled games for addicts.
Mojang -- OK.
- matsemann 3y agoFacebook is just scams and intervenes with elections. Google is just privacy hell that sells your data for ads. Amazon is in the business of abusing its workers. Point being, it was asked for success. Not if people like the company or not.
- ganieldackle 3y agoWhat an intellectually dishonest take comparing Candy Crush to US big tech. You should be embarrassed.

- amarant 3y agoI mean, candy crush is the most downloaded mobile game ever, and it's income is measured in millions of dollars per DAY. I don't much like it either, but it's popularity is difficult to deny. By any objective measure, it's a successful company.
- matsemann 3y agoI wonder what's done more good for the world.
- xvector 3y agoWhat a cynical interpretation. These companies have QoL for billions, directly and indirectly. You are just normalized to it now. For some reason I don't see you blaming Cambridge Analytica - the actual company running the interference by exploiting APIs - for the interference itself.
- matsemann 3y agoDid the point go above your head? Because my point was that the EU companies mentioned also have earned money and been used by billions of people, no matter if the other commenter likes them or not.
- pb7 3y agoIf we're going to be reducing to absurdity, Europe is a museum. No one is looking to it for the next big thing.
