What is the balance of privacy and analytics when even privacy friendly tools like Plausible are blocked.

  I think the main thing is not to send your customers' data to third-parties without their consent. It's usually fine if you use internally analytics for the purpose of running the company, it's not fine if you send those data to other companies that use it for marketing purposes.

    That's not the problem here at all tho.

      Isn't it? Isn't the problem that the data is sent to a third-party service outside EU (in the US) that doesn't offer the same data-protection rules as EU?

        nope, it's that the legal entity is required to honor US warrants. EU wants full control over that process.

          I don't get your point, are you saying that the solution as webmaster is NOT to use a self-hosted solution, but to just sit and blame the EU/US legislation?

  You can't send the data of EU people to companies subject to spying states.
