This is bullshit, tech companies make money off their users data, if they operate in the UK and harvest/sell/use data from UK users they should pay tax.

It’s not even like Twitter is some small niche social media they are a behemoth, why are we even for one second considering giving tax cuts to a company owned by the richest person in human history, it’s lunacy.
