Google isn't the first or last MNC
Does anyone not think of Toyota as Japanese? General Electric is certainly an MNC, but they are quite proudly "American" as is Volkswagen proudly "German."
So, it's silly to think that MNC's, by virtue of their MNC nature, jettison their national allegiance in the ultimate case.
If you want to make the case that they should be truly "multi-national", then we're off to my favorite possible dystopian world, where a corporation becomes a sovereign entity with the power of a state, which is the ultimate conclusion of such thinking.
