That’s fine but if the European parliament finds out that companies can comply with the legislation without making it easier for the governments to read traffic, then we can expect the legislation to change until it achieves that goal.

Even though it may not be the EU’s overtly stated main goal, it is nevertheless a goal of many aligned politicians there, and no doubt the perception among foolish politicians and bureaucrats that it will achieve that goal can account for some of their support, and if they don’t get what they want they will “fix” it until they do.
