> you can make your case

What if you don't want to deal with any of that. You can no longer just create some useful, free service and make it public.Heck, I don't even like having to be familiar with software licensing just to add something in Github.

If you don't want to follow the law you're welcome not to and will have to deal with the courts when they come knocking. This has always been true for all laws, not just GDPR. Try violating fiscal laws in the US just because "you don't want to deal with any of that" and let us know how well that works out for you.

"What if you don't want to deal with any of that."

What if you don't want to deal with the rules of the road?

There is a big cost to regulating the internet and we know that. If the internet was regulated in the 90s we 'd still be watching Teletext.

In other words:

"protecting people's rights is expensive, therefore we shouldn't do it".

That's your argument? Really?
