Looks like strictly specific to Tronc publishing, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tronc#Newspapers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tronc#Newspapers Anyone else blocking? Additionally, blocking access to the site that already has the data from the people of EU is violating GDPR more than simply keeping the site alive. GDPR is not about the data that is collected only after the May 25th.

Why block EU users instead of just disabling analytics and ads for them?

  Because that would result in the EU users burning bandwidth and processor time without any offsetting revenue. I'd imagine that the cost of providing (say) the Los Angeles Times to the EU is non-trivial.

  That doesn't make a political statement.

Yet you can still get to tronc.com Their HTTPS implementation is broken, though; Cert common name wasn't set properly. GJ!
