If you listen to the experts that are economically invested in the complexity of the law, you risk having more work.

If you don't and some regulator fancies making an example of you, then your shareholders will fire and sue you.

Yeah, especially since we live in countries where corruption is rampant, along with unjust enforcement of regulations that completely violate their spirit.

Are you assuming only European companies do business in Europe? EU prosecutors have a history of going after American tech companies much like US has a history of going after foreign companies - especially Chinese and now European (eg. Volkswagen). This is not about a moral stance, just business risk management.
