Should HN follow all applicable laws from every country, state, and county?

  Everywhere they are required to, yes. Just as Amazon and Walmart has to collect taxes on behalf of those municipalities.

    But they don't. HN isn't even compliant with the EU law regarding cookie notices. There are none. There's nothing indicating that logging in or registering will use cookies. Nor there are any checkboxes stating that you agree to the Terms of Service or Privacy Policy or anything of the sort. Besides, cookie notices have to be explicit anyway. It can't be a thing buried deep within ToS or Privacy Policy.

  The “all applicable laws” clause is an interesting little conundrum when drafting contracts: https://www.adamsdrafting.com/applicable/ https://www.adamsdrafting.com/applicable/
