While I fully agree with you in principle, how would that realistically happen? Countries typically only pass laws after something major enough happens. If this was an IoT device that God forbid killed someone, sure, they'd be an outcry against it in the papers, and lawmakers may be galvanized enough to do something.
Call me cynical or just disappointed and jaded, but short of some EU consumer advocacy group pushing for it, I don't see how anything would realistically happen. 99% of laws are made after something bad-bad has already happened.
