What are you talking about?

When the heck did Apple and Google left USA?

I think you're confusing where the headquarters are located with presence in a market

I repeat, you're confusing headquarters with presence.

i think you are confusing appearence with physical existance. much like the eu that thinks they can apply their laws and taxes to a world where reincarnation is a "real" thing available at a few clicks of a keyboard.

and servers are now homed deep under the sea.
