You're not from 'round here are you?
GDPR is internally consistent and designed from the ground up to protect individuals like you and I from the sort of companies that I at least do run and I have no idea what you do.
There is no extraterritorial reach at all. If you want to deal with Europeans then you should respect their laws. In the same way I would not dream of abusing your rights, according to those laws that your legislature have granted you (within reason).
In a way you might describe GDPR as a form of politeness and I'm sure we are all in favour of that. (No lawyers needed)

- dang 9y agoCan you please not post this kind of thing to HN? You veered into being uncivil/unsubstantive several times in this thread. Besides being against the rules (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html), it undermines your argument.
