> GDPR compliance can be extremely expensive to implement, especially for complex software comprised of thousands of microservices that handle customer data. And imagine working in an industry where data retention is legally mandated by other jurisdictions... I only know of the broad strokes of GDPR, but wouldn't the costs be mostly mitigated if one just decided to not collect data? I thought the cost was really only borne if an entity decided to collect and retain data. |

1. Implement GDPR globally, reduced profit globally (by bearing cost of gdpr)
2. Implement GDPR in EU only, and only see reduced profit in EU. Also have two versions of the system: EU and everyone else
3. Don’t implement GDPR, serve EU, risk fines
4. Don’t implement GDPR, don’t serve EU, lose all EU revenue
Assuming data => revenue, there is no free solution (except not to have had EU as a customer in the first place)
