Exactly. If this make European startups build their own ecosystem and provides me with an alternative for the services I use but don't track me, I'm going to switch - simple as. I see this as a win for the internet.

I already get a lot of "We are sorry, but for legal reasons we are prevented from providing this service where you live" when I'm accessing American websites.

Recent European judgements seems to make it illegal to embed content from YouTube or Vimeo for example.

I don't see how dividing services up by region will help me anyway. I'd rather be able to choose from a few (I imagine there are more than a few at the moment) international Mailchimps than one in EU.

Perhaps unpopular opinion, but I don't want a fragmented internet, where I have to remember 10 different options for every single service I need to run a startup. Is that really the hill we want to die on?

I have enough things to worry about, I don't want to consider 10 different cloud computing options, 10 different database options, 10 different analytics services. I want to just go with the big popular option.

Heck I'm willing to bet even if more options come up, the most popular option will be some aggregator site that tells you which one to use.

Here here. Good riddance.
