Style aside, what do you think he should do? Faced with a law that not only imposes disproportionate fines (more than revenue from the country), but on the surface also requires blocking globally, there are really only a few things to do:

3. Influence the law via political means

4. Give in and play ball

5. Exit the country entirely
