Wrong way around. The law doesn't decide how we feel, the law is written after society.

If people think something is really bad objectively, then politicians create laws.

So first we need to decide how we feel, then politicians create laws on that. In Europe, countries tend to be more privacy and security first, and that's why a lot of them already have stricter rules in place.

And Meta also doesn't tell us how to think, they just tell us how they treat our posts, and the rest is up to lawyers if it comes to a specific dispute.

You don't have to agree with laws ever. But for the meantime, you do have to follow them.
