You do care. Everytime some web service is US only there's endless ranting from Europeans about it.

- TeMPOraL 9y agoThat's because, most of the time, a service is US-only because of some bullshit reason like exclusive region-locking deals or MAFIAA copyright terrorism. I don't think that "this service is unavailable in your country because your law doesn't let us sell your private data to the highest bidder" is going to induce that much ranting.
- krageon 9y agoOnce blocking by US websites becomes a little more widespread there will be EU alternatives to fill the gaps. Normally I'm not a huge fan of such solutions, but if the alternative is exposing myself to the wild west of unregulated selling of my personal data that is the US I'll learn to live with it.
