Thanks for phrasing your concerns about this regulation in such a nice way. I tried to articulate it in an earlier post but it was very controversially received. Overall, this will be yet another additional challenge for EU-based startups in comparison with their US peers and keep armies of lawyers busy.

I just want to point out it keeps armies of US engineers employed too. The amount of work I've had for EU companies implementing their EU regulations as a US tech worker is confusing and funny. This is just another opportunity for easy money if you're in the states and enjoy/don't mind compliance work.

  It's good in your working for a large company in the States but not great if you're working for a small company in the EU.

If a US company wants to handle the data of an EU citizen then they'll have to comply or be fined as well. And if you're complying because you want users in the EU, then you might as well design your system to comply for everybody. And that's a Good Thing as more privacy is better.
