Re: Applying pressure on Twitter

"If they push too hard, Twitter doesn't have to be based in the US."

If they push too hard none of the multinational tech businesses have to be based in the US as legal entities. Running down the US-based resources could take longer but could happen. All the US govt would then be able to apply pressure to would be a local subsidiary or, for added distance, a local franchise.
