They really can just throw money at the problem to solve it, which otherwise hamstrings their competition. If you can plop a billion dollars down to move data to the right country, have lawyers to check your lawyers checking your lawyers, and can afford penalties when you trip up, you're already at an advantage over most of your competition—probably without having to sacrifice much in the process.

If DDG can do similar results without the popup then hopefully people will migrate there. (Of course G Search is brutally entrenched in a myriad ways, connected services, Android, Chrome, all the other browser defaults, etc.)
