Imho that’s one of the best outcomes i.e. companies which will try to comply with all of the rules will go out of business or move to a less dystopian jurisdiction. Then there will be a lot economic pressure to build networking and payment systems which allow working around all this crap.

If on the order hand it’s actually streamlined and works without any friction nobody will lose their jobs/tax revenue and governments will come up with even more and even more dystopian shit.
