This regulation is so shitty. I'm quite sure that it is supported by big actors in the end, because the end goal is to ensure to have a regulatory barrier that will avoid small actors to be able to strive in the software field.

Also, to avoid "dangerous" not yet professional amateurs having a chance against big editors.

This was the first question on my mind as well. How will this affect the one-man webshop owner or software developer? Seems only big established firms will be able to conform to this?

This question was asked a lot when GDPR came around, and it's essentially an implication that the regulator will act in bad faith.

Courts and regulators, particularily European ones, understand when there's a "will" to follow the law. It's one of the differences between "rules-based" and "principles-based" regulations.
