Curious how you feel about GDPR (the EU asserts its authority to bind an American entity with servers in America running a service targeted at American consumers so long as a single EU citizen chooses to visit the site).
- cameronbrown 7y agoIn theory* In practice if you've got no presence in the EU, what can they realistically do? Extradite over GDPR?
- jpambrun 7y agoYou could have one GDPR compliant site in the EU and a different international one.. or just block EU. Nobody is infringing on someone else's sovereignty in that case.
- cpach 7y agoSome sites actually do block visitors from the EU. E.g. the Chicago Tribune.
- pilsetnieks 7y agoOnly inasmuch as it pertains to the data of the single EU citizen. The American entity can do whatever they want with their American consumer data.
