If you have set up an EU VAT for your non-EU company, how was the process?

I am in the EU and I am mainly interested about the process for outsiders, since I'd like to be able to explain it to potential business partners in the future.

Say I have a website that has articles, video and audio content.

How should I determine how to count a content view?

For text, is it a mere visit? What about multimedia, should there be some threshold of watched/listened length before a view is counted?

How about repeated visits? Should they count the same or should there be a window where multiple views are counted as one?

What if user keeps refreshing the page to increase view count?

Should one user be counted always as just one view?

etc... any tips on this topic?

I've been online for over two decades now and I have noticed that the usual "log in", "log out" has been slowly replaced by "sign in" and "sign out" in the past half a decade.

Also "sign up" has replaced "register" and "create account".

Does anybody know why?

Say I have a website that is under DDOS attack. Assume it will be going on indefinitely. Assume my hosting provider has DDOS protection that will protect my servers but at the same time users will be unable to access the website.

How can I survive being targeted like this? Cycling IP addresses and updating DNS ad infinitum does not seem like viable solution... because in the end, it's the network attacks that get you, not the application level attacks.

I use Aliexpress quite extensively. Amazon never caught up here in Europe and most likely never will. I never had issue with Ali. Its only downside is the waiting time(21 days on average). Anyway, in my last three orders I have noticed discrepancy in what amount I am shown and what amount I got charged. With first two orders, I have attributed it to the coins that you can collect for discounts. In your cart you can select individual items to pay for and so I did that and saw different prices than I paid and I thought it was because I ordered two items at once so the coins got applied differently. I contacted the support but cancelling the orders seemed fastest solution.

Yesterday I made another order and today I noticed the discrepancy again. This time there were no discounts or coins involved, it was just wrong. I see the large amount in the order itself but e-mail and in message notification i see the lower amount, just like with the previous orders. I have contacted the support again, but it was useless eve nwhen I provided screenshots. The order got shipped and it was only little over €1 so I can live with that but I will not accept this behavior willingly going forward. So I am wondering whether I am alone in this or they indeed have a bug in their system?
