> if we can popularize a safe option, we can just flag all the unsafe approaches

I am not a lawyer, but I think under european privacy laws those approaches are probably ilegal, too.

If some manufacturer (probably chinese) wants to grab data from people in Europe, they must comply with EU laws even if they don't have an office in the EU.

Not beign able to sell to a huge market is probably a better tactique, but not the only one to use.
