- coldacid 8y agoMy guess is that anyone in the USA who doesn't do business in Europe will be able to get away with saying "F you" to the EU.
- adventured 8y agoYou shouldn't be getting downvoted for that, you're entirely correct. My new company in the US can safely ignore the EU when it comes to both Article 13 and GDPR. There is nothing they can do about it. I can take on EU users, who can freely upload content, and I do not need to comply with the EU filter laws. There is merely one primary requirement: all of my business and infrastructure must remain outside of the EU. So long as I do that, I get to avoid those laws. This of course isn't unique to the US, the same is true of most other non-EU nations.
