Sitewide compliance could reduce revenue worldwide, in those cases it could often make sense to exit the EU market entirely.

That is of course one alternative. Depending on your business it might be viable, but the EU is a pretty big market to skip out on assuming your business model itself doesn't violate the GDPR.

If the only reason you're making money is by disrespecting your user's privacy, then one has to question whether you should be in business in the first place.

GDPR isn’t perfect, and those not in compliance with a new, vaguely written, policy aren’t automatically evil.

The policy is 2 years old. It's hardly new; there was lots of time to ask questions and come into compliance.

Plenty of time to ask questions but no one who can give straight answers.
