Sadly, the only real response here is non-compliance. Recently, credit card company wanted me to provide ID upon login ( I was amused -- while my setup may not be common, it has not changed for years now ). So I didn't and just ignored it. I checked on it this month and it suddenly was fine. But then.. one has to be willing to take a hit to their credit and whatnot.

The point remains though. They have zero way to enforce it if we choose to not comply. Just saying.

They have plenty of ways to enforce it. It's a law, they can take you to court. I guess it's easy to forget these days but laws do still apply to some people. If you're going to host a service, I guess consider using Tor or something.
