What's an 'American' company these days?

US companies like Oracle, MS, Google, etc. have offices all over the world.

They also tend to use various visas to import 10% of their own US based staff (probably a much higher ratio of engineers) from foreign nations.

The US has gotten very wealthy from offshoring, foreign talent, and technical exports, but it causes a massive problem when keeping secrets locally.
