If you're an American, then you can gain (indirect) access to GDPR protections by transferring ownership of your Facebook account to a citizen of an EU member state. They can then withdraw consent to track personal data from Facebook for that account and/or send a subject access request.
Taking this action violates the Facebook ToS and will result in your account being closed.
Checkmate?

- kazen44 9y agoI wonder if someone could make a legitamite bussiness out of this? pay someone 5$ to get your account trasferred to a EU citizen, and consequently removed by the GDPR guidelines. Your still taking a huge risk by giving your profile to someone unknown though.
- politician 9y agoYou might be able to structure the sale so that the European was the data subject for GDPR reasons, but did not have the passwords. That seems reasonable because under the GDPR, a company like Equifax would be obligated to purge your data if you withdrew consent even though you don't have access to the account they have on you.
