In other words, the EU mandates that I follow their law, even though they have no jurisdiction over me. I can follow it by refusing to track PII, or I can follow it by “blocking” Europe on the WWW. I can’t be bothered to figure out how to do either of those things, so I don’t bother. I just spin up an instance of Discourse and move on.
