Oh my. Terribly sorry for putting up a political manifesto.
> Either self-interest or useful-idiot.
Take your pick. No third options? Such as a genuine desire to take some of the heat off for SMEs, of which I own several and participate in several others?
> For some reason he is such a fan of this legislation that he is willing to overlook its glaring problems.
Yes, I'm a fan of this legislation. I also was a fan of its predecessor and it's a joy to see companies that don't have their house in order make all kinds of panicked moves. I have a pretty good behind the scenes view of what goes on with respect to privacy abuse by corporations due to the nature of my work. Those companies that do illegal stuff, don't give a damn about their users and that in general are clueless (and which in turn increases the chances of their online properties being compromised) will be the ones that run into the 'glaring problems' The only thing that I see as troublesome with the law is the lack of reciprocity and enforcement across borders. The EU picked a complex and for really small companies expensive way to resolve that and that's something that I see as a real issue.

> No objectivity there, I am afraid.
I think you mean to say you don't agree with me.
