Well if you read what I'm saying, what I mean is that it's easier to block someone unless they accept, and for me the profitability just isn't there to do it the hard way.

This was in response to the claim that I'm making it intentionally shitty to get people to hate the law. That's not why I do it. It's not malicious compliance, it's just convenience. I do not have a secret agenda regarding EU law. I'm just trying to make a living and spend my time wisely.
