I’m just confused by your view.

This is a relatively simple regulation that basically required anybody processing user data to do so responsibly. How does one have an ethical objection to that?

Define anybody. Define user data. Define responsibly.

Please read about the GDPR, where this is all explained in far better detail than I will be able to.

Alternatively, hire a lawyer, like you would for any other regulatory requirement.

Far better details? It gives vague info on what might be considered personal data... I would not call it very detailed. In most cases just says personally identifiable information.
