It's a shame this is downvoted. It doesn't make it right, but it is true.
Until the regulation actually gets enforced so that everyone is on a level playing field and does not do such things, you will be at a disadvantage if you're the only one to comply, so the winning strategy is to not comply and engage in such practices just like your competitors do.
I wish I had a nickel for all the downvotes I’ve earned for describing things as they are

"need" is the wrong word for this. And the comment doesn't talk about it as a prisoner's dilemma, it says "need" unconditionally. The downvotes are not sad.
