Re:Irish finance minister calls €14B tax windfall from Apple... by AnthonyMouse on Tuesday October 01, 2024 @06:48PM (#41715126)
The issue is that the rule is highly subjective. So now there is a ruling for how not to structure your tax laws and they'll set out to achieve the same goal in a different way, i.e. they'll be more subtle about it in the future.

It's not even _really_ that (though this is something the EU certainly takes an interest in); the issue in this case was around Apple being given a special tax deal which was not available to other companies.
