- the_watcher 8y agoAs an American, I agree with this. It comes down to the value of the market. GDPR has a major impact on American companies because the EU is a valuable market - as I understand it, every company has the option to opt out of GDPR by ceasing operations in the EU, which would mean blocking EU traffic (I may be oversimplifying a bit, but the crux is the same). The US treats the rest of the world complying with its laws the same way, and any company could opt out of US laws by not servicing US customers.
