Any corporation that wants to do business in the EU will notice

The Swiss court decision is an inflection point, not just for EU doings.
"...the first decision confirming that countries have an obligation to protect people from its effects...would open the door to more legal challenges in the countries that are members of the Council of Europe, which includes the 27 EU nations as well as many others from Britain to Turkey."

ChatGPT tax advice: "While it may seem tempting to follow the example of wealthy individuals who engage in questionable accounting practices, there are several reasons why you should not do so. These oligarchs have access to legal resources that allow them to manipulate their financial statements and avoid taxes within the bounds of the law."
