I'm an entrepreneur, I want sensible laws, not laws that open up a hornets net of regulatory burden.
Almost every new breakthrough startup in recent years did so by breaking existing conventions and laws. Should Uber or AirBnB not exist because existing regulatory capture by protected industries?
Besides worrying about being sued by any jackass with a shitty patent and a lawyer, now you'll have additional regional specific worry. To me that means, if I was launching a startup today, I'd simply launch it US only.
Don't you love how when music or media services launch in the US, you don't get to watch them in every country? How Netflix or say, Spotify, are blocked for certain regions?
Get ready for a lot more of that, a balkanized internet, where a URL or IP address is no longer a uniform, universal access.
