Not high-end at all, my Fiesta has it as standard. It's a fantastic feature, it just annoys me that the sensor gets hit by the car ceiling lights when they're on, so if the light is on you get a completely dark mirror. I call it a

They're not approving illegal activity in Denmark, they're tacitly approving activity that may or may not be legal on a jurisdiction that is outside of the scope of its parent state. Regardless, that doctrine isn't used in mo

This kind of data is used to conduct investigations. People aren't charged based on the data on this evidence but rather the authorities use this data in order to know where and at what to look for fraud.

You're not thinking small enough: many, if not most, companies would need like 1-2 new people. The overhead of opening and managing a new office isn't worth it in those scenarios. Plus you're ignoring that most companies aren

"Falling" is an interesting description, considering all 3 corporations you listed doubled or almost tripled their market cap within the last 5 years. If anything they're falling upwards.
