  And this is connected to GDPR how exactly? Companies do these things all the time, I guess it's fun to imagine that opening offices in other countries is fleeing and that are fleeing to UK because they are having trouble processing personal data when developing drugs but I don't see why would that be the case. Fun fact: UK data protection laws are about the same as EU.

    As an entrepreneur you have to deal with finances, a great product and market competition. Why on earth would you additionally put legal insecurity on top, up until in a couple of years there might be enough jurisdictional rulings putting shallow definitions in EU regulations into context? Fun fact: Why would UK miss the chance to attract tech companies and get rid of pre-Brexit laws after they went through all the unfortunate hassle Brexit was?

      > Why would UK miss the chance to attract tech companies and get rid of pre-Brexit laws after they went through all the unfortunate hassle Brexit was? Because UK is not made of libertarians who were under the EU opression but all those EU laws were made with UK's contribution and input. The UK has not become the libertarian utopia and will not become the libertarian utopia inside or outside of EU because the British public at large doesn't want it. If anything, probably the Labour party will win the next elections, the libertarians are very unpopular. British are not Americans and most don't trust corporations and want government involvement in protecting them against wrongdoings. Brexit's biggest con was that EU is some 3rd party and the British public wants something else. In reality, Brits made the EU.
