You can't compare "withdraw from society entirely" with "don't star in pornography".
So like in European countries, only that in European countries you have to give up your fingerprints when you turn 14, and it's mandatory.
That depends on whether you consider "lost income" to be damage. If I had a webpage or an ad business, for me it would be damage.
>The issue that you have with Protonmail seems to be that they enabled IP logging in response to a lawful government request. Google logs IP by default, scans your messages, etc. It baffles me that there is less outrage at that than this single case.

So in case the government is out to get you, both options will lead to the same outcome: your IP address is revealed.
