Saw some grumbling online regarding the preferential pricing of Switch 2 and PlayStation 5 in Japan. Did you know that many Chinese electronics—smartphones, action cams, etc.—are priced lower domestically too? The question we need to ask is: Why Apple, Microsoft, and other US tech giants aren’t doing the same for their compatriots? Instead, they dodge US taxes through Ireland.
