Re: " The EU, on the other hand, makes up new rules nobody knew of beforehand. "

What? That's bullshit. Sorry. cont.

>"If the UK leaves without a deal, then the rules are clear. If UK not in EU, then things that require x to be in the EU are no longer valid if x is in the UK. It's pretty simple."

Under the .eu Ts&Cs a Registrant will have agreed to notify the Registrar within 30 days of any changes to their registration; hence in a no deal Brexit, the UK leaves the EU on 29-Mar, a UK-based Registrant will have 30 days ie. until 29-Apr to notify the .eu Registrar of this fact.

So in issuing the notice, the EU has drawn your attention to this requirement; instead it could have quietly adhered to the rules and simply disabled domains registered to UK addresses on the 30-Apr...
