Compelling a UK subsidiary of a foreign company to produce evidence
for use in a UK court does not look very extraterritorial to me.
Globalization cuts both ways, there are increased opportunities and
responsibilities.

I think you actually want this because otherwise, UK companies with
local ownership are at a competitive disadvantage.
