If I did business in the EU, I would be banning this chap from my services on the basis that the risk he poses to the business is too great...

You would do no such thing, because if you tried, you wouldn't have a business in the EU anymore.
In other words, you'd ban someone because they might notice that you are doing illegal stuff and you might get caught.

Follow the laws and it isn't an issue. I'm pretty sure banning someone for that stuff is probably illegal, too.

Frankly, this attitude is pathetic. Absolute loser behaviour.

I don't think you should be doing business anywhere if customers being familiar with the law and knowing their rights scares you. Frankly if you are running a business, you should be familiar with the laws and regulations, doing otherwise - especially when someone points out that your behaviour is illegal - is negligence and punishment with a fine is completely appropriate. Welcome to living in a society.

The risk of getting caught doing business illegally? You really don't give a damn about the illegal part, just getting caught?
Just awoid some jurisdictions. Bulgaria is in EU, has all the same access, and has no time for this BS.
You can see the fines the Bulgarian regulator has handed out here:
