One of the more effective (but potentially over reaching) parts of EU law is that the governments usually give enforcement powers with discretion on how to enforce them. On the one hand it’s annoying because there are no clear rules for how to do business at times. On the other hand, it does typically do a better job of articulating the “spirit of the law” and not allowing people to hack around the letter of the law. I’m pretty sure if using a hack became a trend, then they would start suing people in a few years down the road and extract all the money.
