Comment on Senate report: Microsoft used loopholes to avoid billions in taxes

Comments

Moving around intellectual property rather than than profits is very very old practice for tech companies. Why repatriate profits when you can use them for R&D spending outside the USA, where there may even also be an R&D tax credit!

Moving the intellectual property out of the USA, and then using that to make US sales from anther country is pretty ballsy though.
