Great point, this will happen instantly.

It’s actually optimized for them. The goal is to get users to spend time and see ads etc. The UI is not made for us users.

Devils advocate here: it’s their webservice right? They determine who can access it.

So it must be worth a lot of money to force al of that stuff on users right?

This is fine imo. If you don’t want to comply, don’t. You just don’t get to extract EU data
