      The problem is that showing enough politicians money effectively makes you become the government. There’s minimal chance of a law being introduced unless a rich person or corporation backs it, and EU laws would interfere with their shady business practices.

      Not big enough to force companies to make large changes. The US is, China and India are. But what about Australia or New Zealand? Or any of the individual south american countries? Too many changes, microsoft or one of the other big players will just pull out of the market, or threaten to pull out.

        If they already have a version compatible with EU law, they will just roll it out instead of removing an entire country from their market.

        Would be a bad business move otherwise.

        Of course, only if the laws don’t force even more restrictions.
