Worse case scenario, the default web browser settings will be set to "High" upon installation, instead of "Medium". This will require users to click Yes everytime a cookie gets added, unless they change their settings. Even that probably won't happen, since it's an EU law, and most web browsers are developed in the US.

There is also a law in the UK that every website must have contact details for the business it is owned by. Do you see many affiliate porn sites complying with that?
