So as the UK left the EU, they are now a small country in the computer world. I'll ignore its laws

Laws like this tend to spill over to other countrys, unless the politicians in question have to tiptoe away from the mess

Pick a lane.

These are different things.

You can ignore its laws by blocking users, and clearly saying you won't comply with such stupid laws.

Being concerned that this can spread to other countries is a big reason why you have to be clear about not playing along.
