Any company can be asked about gdpr, you can ignore it, and on the whole jurisdiction isn't going to cross boundaries (the u.s does believe it's federal laws apply globally, but it's rare they enforce it)
However should you ever do business or go to an eu country you may struggle.
Just like if you insult the Thai King, then go to Bangkok on holiday, you may well get arrested. Or if your company is accused of breaking the dmca and then go to the u.s on holiday you get arrested.
- filoleg 9y agoI understand your point, and I agree that this is what would probably happen if I just ignored it, but how would my service be breaking the rules, if it explicitly would state that it is not designed for citizens of EU and that if you click "yes", then you confirm that you are not a EU citizen? Wouldn't that be on the user for lying, in the same way it would be if an underage person visits an adult website and clicks a button that says "Confirm that I am 21+"?
- isostatic 9y agoI would suspect the EU would find such a box irellevent and would deal with you like the US dealt with David Carruthers or Peter Dicks
