   I am once again happy that the EU is fighting practices like these via legislation.

   Some outcomes can be annoying, but the net result is still positive, for the consumers and their data privacy at least.

      And the sane world is fighting the EU BS with geo blocking.

      Just set up your user agent to work as you wish, isn't that simpler than have unelected, technologic dumb bureaucrats writing laws that are complex and don't solve the issue?

               I don't see how, perhaps explain what you eman instead of handwaving.
