Perhaps this is yet another good reason (that of national sovereignty) to leave the EU!     If this realstionship and deal is good enough for Ireland the Apple then that should be the end of the matter.   The EU does not provide Ireland with 6,000 jobs like Apple does, so if I were Ireland I'd simply refuse to abide by their decision!  What the hell can they do?  Expel Ireland from the EU?  That would be a blessing and a death warrant to the lazy bureaucrats in the EU in Brussels.

Concur- also being 'stupid' is almost a resume qualification for being a political.   Look at the stupid open-entry that Merkel initiated for the mass migration into Europe damn the long term consequences.

MacKeeper is horrible as it is intrusive and misleading. It also peppers the user with annoying pop ups, this crape are is hatred by a majority of Mac users.  Apple should install a OS feature which allows any user to de-I stall any third party software.

Time for Irelabd to leave the EU and tell Brussels to go to hell.

Another social issues for US business to avoid, let this issue be settled on its own accord and instead concentrate on business issues.
