Not going to be easy but one of those pieces of legislation which might encourage the behaviour even if not enforce it consistently

That's interesting. All the articles I've seen up to now focus on the big tech regulation part, but there are a lot of provisions in that law that will be generally helpful, for example making it a requirement that there must be a way to get in touch with the company.

I look forward to seeing it come in ....

... oh wait, damn.
