They're not imposing new regulation on your internet to support their
business licensing models - they're imposing existing (and international)
regulations on someone else's business that existing distributors provide
controls for.

And that many existing online distributors provide controls for - hence why
they should be using the most local method of locating a person - ask for
permission to get the location from their device first (as is possible
nowadays), then try to get the location from any one of other fallback
methods (namely, IP geolocation).
