Do you also think that food industry should not be regulated, I mean is it important that rats could walk on your food ingredients as long as users don't know and are happy with the final product? Do you think that food businesses are affected by this regulations and we do not see the a move fast and kill people in the industry?

Same for fire safety,road safety, air transport safety regulations, I am sure that many business people would benefit by ignoring this laws, so let's do what is better for some business people and who cares about society.

Related to GDPR specifically, don't collect personal data that your product does not need, is it hard? Maybe you need to put a bit of effort to be in compliance but if your product is hones then you are fine, if you are not honest and you were collecting data in the hope you maybe could sell it later then I understand why you don't like it,
