I live in the US, operate in the US, and if I ever go to the EU, I am quite confident that the system won't move quickly enough to notice I'm in the EU and collect fines during a tourist stay. So no, they couldn't fine me. If they did fine me, there would be zero repercussions for simply ignoring the fine. I am not saying I plan to break this law: I'm a big supporter of encrypting everything and I was in compliance with this law before this law existed. I think that this law is a big positive step for privacy in the EU. I am saying that the claims that this EU law will have massive international effects are overblown. There are five other continents with major businesses and only the businesses which operate in the EU have any reason to care about EU laws which are enforceable only in the EU. EDIT: I accidentally a continent.
