Trump has said that he is going to impose reciprocal tariffs… and he already considers European VAT a tariff. So we,d better start finding substitutes from Europe mainly to product and services from the USA…

The tech part are not manufactured in the us, and I am pretty sure the software already has servers oversies? Or if it doesn’t, after the Trump taxes it will!
Just because its a US based company, that doesn’t mean that they necessarily involve the US in any way or form!
That’ll be up to the US’s interpretation of it’s own laws.
The tech part is made in the US: those companies have very little engineers outside of the US, were founded in US, have HQ in US, … so they could argue it’s US tech.
The software is ran outside the US, too. That’s the extend to which it isn’t.
Is Stephen King a US writer if his books are also printed elsewhere, would be an analogy.
We are talking about taxes right? You think an iPhone that is made in thailand, transported through in international waters and sold in Liechtenstein gonna pay taxes to the US? And Stephen King? You think the US get any taxes after copies sold outside the us?
And yes, the US can make whatever laws it wants! The thing is, the other countries can either not follow it or reinstate the same terms as retaliation!
That’s indeed what happens in a trade war. In the end it comes down to relative power (in)balance: who needs whom the most.
Not rlly if you look up its def, but you you realize that your 3 previous comment make no sense?
Nope.
