No, no, please understand that this is simply ‘sound-bites’; ‘forbidding UK hosts from hosting sites.
Yes that’s the whole point, these sites won’t be hosted in the UK site - so irrelevant.
Now, your second point which seems to be ’non-compliant sites won’t be able to collect money from the UK and hence won’t bother to supply a service to the UK’? Well, OK fine, except it is trivially easy to bypass. Also, do you seriously think this will happen?
