    oh. So if I publish a website I’m responsible for following other countries/areas laws?

      That’s exactly how the EU keeps levying fines on Meta and Xitter. If you make your service available in a country, you have to follow their laws. If you don’t want to do that, then you can’t allow people from that country to use your site. This really isn’t controversial.

        No it makes sense. I guess I just thought it would be the other way around.
