But we have to keep in mind that this is becoming a global standard

Fuck that bullshit. Fuck those idiots saying this is inevitable, that we have to proactively comply with laws that aren't even in the making. We don't. We won't. We'll fight every step of the way.

This isn't a technical requirement. It's a legal requirement based on either incomplete or vested understanding of the problem. Such requirements must not only be rejected, the legislators who propose those should be investigated for graft and public shunned and shamed. Traitors of humanity!
