They don't want to comply with the GDPR or other EU laws.

Or perhaps they don’t want to hold the product back everywhere until that engineering work and related legal reviews are done.

Supporting EU has become an additional roadmap item, much like supporting China (for different reasons of course). It takes extra work and time, and why put the rest of the world on hold pending that work?

So one shouldn't expect any privacy.

GDPR is easy to comply with unless you don't offer basic privacy to your users/customers.
