They’ll probably try not to take the tax money, again.

Yeah, same situation when the Irish DPA refuses to fine Facebook for violating the GDPR so the EU has to step in and force them to fine Facebook and thus collect all the money.

I didn’t see it in the article, but doesn’t Ireland have comically low tax rates to start with?

Yes, that is why many big tech companies have their european hq there.

Edit: Wikipedia on Ireland as a tax haven

And you could say they are pretty lenient with enforcing GDPR & co (they don’t do fuck if not forced).

Ireland really seems corrupt as fuck when it comes to Facebook, Apple and I think Google.
