This will break and fracture the web. Unfortunately many here have much to lose by criticizing google. I have just spent 8 hours today updating my apps on the google play store, answering business emails on my google email account and updating customer tracking data on google analytics and updating their google ads.

If they decide to make an example out of me, to teach the rest of you how to behave, I am screwed. I guess that's the "freedom" you US based folks are talking about. This has already been affecting the discourse on sites like HN for a while.

If you get creative and find a way to sell yourself into slavery despite us making that nominally illegal there's very little we can do to help you.
