Then maybe those people shouldn't be opening side businesses? Running a business implies having to deal with business matters which include legal. For example in Switzerland if I want to open a small cafe in the corner selling home made cheesecake, I'll have to first figure out what the exact regulations in my state are, obtain a permit for opening one, create a "Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points" concept and send it to the authorities, make somewhat sure I get accounting right, maybe getting a permit for infrastructure changes, etc. I'm not talking about GDPR especially because I don't know enough about it yet. And in general I am sceptical of laws and regulations that don't seem absolutely necessary. What I don't get is why anyone should care that some tech people running a business don't want do deal with legal like everyone else? What makes us so special?
