2/3 Example 1: If I pay say Amazon some money for a VM with Linux and PostgreSQL, will CRA cover Amazon?
Well, maybe, according to Amazon lawyers, no. Because they are charging just for the VM and that software is provided for free by somebody else. (And those "somebody else" might be thus covered by CRA, even if not getting any money from those VM payments.)
3/3 Example 2: What we know from "cookie law" is, that almost no company will comply with a/the regulation in a way which is good for a user, e.g. in a way compliant with the spirit of the law.
