The issue with Google is that it is a known tax avoider using the Double
Irish and will not desist until the Double Irish is officially abolished
in 2020. Google will also collect personal data. MS is also an alleged
gross global tax avoider and as well as an oligopoly. Why have local
authorities not considered LibreOffice? It is cross-platform, OpenSource
(free as in libre and also free as in gratuit). At some stage, local
authorities and HEIs might address ethical considerations.
