Eh, I'd give him a poke.
I think you're right, since a website like SteamHistory is definitely not going to bother establishing a representative in an EU state the only recourse would be to try to go through the US legal system and it's far from clear to me how that would go. GDPR seems like it was written with actual businesses in mind, but SteamHistory isn't exactly that. I think a business would want to comply or lose access to a valuable market, but there's less leverage on a (seemingly) privately run web site.
Take that, India! 😎
Most work laptops I've seen use smart cards for this. The computer is locked unless your card is inserted and a PIN is entered, and removing the card locks the computer.
Yeah we always have been shit as a nation, but it doesn't always have to be this way. We can change.

Framework laptops are undeniably expensive. I say that as a happy owner of both the 13 and the 16. The value is not the appeal. To be honest, I don't even expect it to "pay for itself due to upgradability and repairability" like many people say.
More availability of refurbished mainboards should help over time, I guess.
There is no practical reason to "do better." It's fine.
