I think the issue here is that GDPR is really broad.

We have had our legal team review it to perform a cost/benefit analysis on whether we should comply with GDPR or block the EU region for the time being.

At the end, while we all agreed that the idea behind this law is reasonable, it would benefit us to ignore the EU region. (We reviewed our database to ensure we don't have any EU users currently on the system before doing this)

That being said, we branched out and started to slowly implement some GDPR requirements that can benefit our existing users privacy and we will certainly remove the EU blockage when the scope of this law becomes more apparent to our legal team.

I strongly believe software is due for some serious regulation, just like all other branches of engineering, we need to take responsibility for the systems we create and I feel like this is a sign that our industry is maturing from it's infancy stage.

Kudos to EU for making an attempt to keep Europeans safe.
