I think once the dust settles and it becomes clearer how the law is being handled, it is going to get easier.

My first job twelve years ago was at a company similar to yours in Switzerland. A small bootstrapped SaaS targeted at enterprise and government. Switzerland is quite serious about privacy with strict laws regarding them, but since they have been around for a long time, nobody freaked out about it. It is just part of the daily business for everyone.

I can't remember compliance with such constraints being a serious competitive disadvantage for the company. In fact after Snowden the label "Made in Switzerland" and images of datacenters in mountain bunkers became an advantage internationally.
