I mean, however flawed the EU may be, I think they are earnestly trying to protect the average person from the current paradigm of abusive data collection. Perfect can’t be the enemy of good.

Aren't you using USB C for all devices? Don't companies have to disclose selling your data online? Right to repair? EU is made of many forces. The cryptography ban is stupid, but EU doesn't homogenously support it.
It's an ocean away from dark patterns on every step and people thinking that having to spend 3 hours on phone to cancel a subscription is "normal".
That is blatantly wrong.
The EU has been trying to ban encryption for the last 3 years so that it can read all your text messages, listen to your conversations and monitor the images you send to your loved ones/friends without requiring a warrant from the authorities, therefore granting them an unlimited access to everyone's private life without offering any possible recourse.
The EU's pro-privacy stance is a just a facade, they want as much data as the US government, they just don't want to admit it publicly.
