MODERATORS
And which ones from China or the EU are you planning to investigate and learn about? It works both ways.
Not knowing the miniature of laws from other countries is not ignorance, there is only so much a person can learn and take in.
'Getting annoyed is a form of judgment' is an incredibly flipant response.
When you're in tech or in schools, you learn about this and also about EU and Chinese copyright because some of them can sue the pants off or block your site/material from getting money. If you want to use certain tools, including me using this nonUS website, I need to be aware of their rules so I don't mess up the terms and services. US apps have something for EU users for this purpose.
