Then there's the complaint that corporations will do things like spend X dollars on a park to show what great guys they are, and then engage in tax-dodging like registering their trademark to a foreign entity and coincidentally every year the "royalties" on the trademark just magically work out so the domestic company doesn't make any money...and they end up avoiding Y taxes, where Y is probably several orders of magnitude greater than X.

And then there's all the tax breaks companies get when they make noise about thinking of moving somewhere else.

I don't know if 1password does any of this, primarily because I can't find the slightest bit of tax information about 1password (or "Agilebits", the actual corporate name.)
