Personally, I don't think this is the answer. Like, I get it, and it's a sure way to avoid having to deal with all this bs. But at the end of the day, the only people who suffer from this decision are the end users. It's punishing them for something their government has implemented. Doesn't seem right to me.
An important thing to understand here is that in America, the people have the power over their government. The people of California are responsible for putting the people who did this in power, and it’s their responsibility for getting them out again.
This is now in many countries, not just the US
It is not up to the developer community to take responsibility for the stupid decisions made by their government.
People get the leaders they deserve.
Sadly, they often do not.
There is always the option of non compliance.
