I understand your point, and I agree that this is what would probably happen if I just ignored it, but how would my service be breaking the rules, if it explicitly would state that it is not designed for citizens of EU and that if you click "yes", then you confirm that you are not a EU citizen? Wouldn't that be on the user for lying, in the same way it would be if an underage person visits an adult website and clicks a button that says "Confirm that I am 21+"?



I would suspect the EU would find such a box irellevent and would deal with you like the US dealt with David Carruthers or Peter Dicks
