I have a somewhat different view of things. I would
rather block access to my server from the USA than having
to be responsible for its content according to laws in the
USA.

Only sensible rules. And they are basically the same for
children and grownups.

I am reasonably familiar with European privacy regulations.
And I do not find them problematic or difficult to comply
with.
The only real trouble is for organisations with servers
located both inside and outside the EU. They are in general
_not_ allowed to transfer any user data from the servers
inside the EU to servers outside the EU (there are
exceptions to this rule though).
And don't worry. We will do our best to follow all the
regulations of the country hosting the site, once we get
that far.
Play well,
Jacob
