I understand your point and yes it can be problematic in some countries, the solution is to not make business in the countries where local law contradicts most of the world and your believes. My opinion is that we should not give up on creating rules that help the consumer because some company will have a harder time, I understand is hard for a startup to build an airplane or a car because of safety regulation but those are necessary for the society at large. If EU will demand that your product comes with a warranty and US does not demand it you have the choice not to sell in EU or make a better product.
Back to software, as long as companies will find new ways to abuse the users the users will demand laws to get protected, the problem is the laws differ from country to country or appear later in other country, could the industry find a way to prevent the abuses to happen?
