This goes both ways right? European sites don't have to follow US laws? Like dcma.

Thing is that all credit card transactions are settled by US companies. Try running an online business without the ability to charge by card.
Europe is working on that, in Spain we have Bizum and I'm sure there's equivalents in other European countries. We need to standardise it and make it work as seemlessly as contactless card pay. There's some places where you can do it pretty easily already, but it takes time.

4chan has a lawyer?
I'm imagining someone like Better Call Saul, but even lower rent.
