Well that's ... kind of the point, isn't it? If they're not going to be compliant and respect our privacy, or even if they kind of would like to be sort of privacy-respecting in a sense except that their business model precludes them from actually being able to be compliant however since business models are rather subject to change especially with the SV "get venture capital and break stuff" mentality, such that even the "in a sense" part is exceedingly likely to become unjustifiably cost-inefficient as soon as the business gets big enough to believe they can get away with it (like, you know, Facebook, Google, etc), ... then, good riddance, right?
I mean, just because a company believes they can claim to "respect your privacy" without actually being compliant to the EU regulations specifying they should do such, let's call it a cultural difference then.
