Obviously it might cost money (or time, which might mean money). Argument is still the same, it's not out of the ordinary to comply with regulations and laws.

It seems more like a cultural difference, whereby some one-man shops from US find privacy not important.

No there's no cultural difference (or perhaps there is, but it's not on display here). It's not out of the ordinary to comply with regulations and laws -- businesses often change to do so. However, it's also not out of the ordinary for businesses to go out of business due to legal situations. Both are signs of a functioning regulatory environment.
