The EU’s laws typically have the opposite effect of what they say they are for. Just like “net neutrality”, trying to impose a GDPR-like law in the USA will be a bad thing. So, no.

Well, it’s upstting their business plan that users don’t care. Competitors are making a fortune off user data- and Apple is missing out on that revenue stream.
