Just block your website from being accessed in any country where you aren’t sure you can comply with their laws. A lot of sites are doing that for GDPR.

- dantheman 7y agoThe country can choose the block the website. Why should you have to do it?
- elondaits 7y agoThe GDPR only applies to websites / companies that either have offices / legal status in a european country or that specifically target / sell to europeans (e.g. they place ads in Europe, ship merchandise to Europe, etc.). You don't need to block european countries if you have no business or interest there.
- tzs 7y agoIt also applies to sites not in the Union if their processing activities are related to "the monitoring of their behaviour as far as their behaviour takes place within the Union". (Article 3 section 2(b)). Unlike the target/sell case, this doesn't seem to require intent to specifically deal with Europeans. If you aren't sure that what you do doesn't count as monitoring behavior, then blocking can make sense.
