Well maybe they have similar regulations.
So well it's a bit strange.
Through GDPR applies to any company selling to the EU, the fact that you can easily travel to Switzerland to buy a product due to more or less open borders and import it to the EU can matter in some cases. So to be "safe" I wouldn't be surprised if they would need to put geo-fencing in to be on the safe site.
Due to Facebook repeatedly intentionally breaching or trying to undermine EU (and member states) laws and regulations (because the penalties are lower then their profit) there isn't really much (any?) good-will left with the local and EU law keepers (except in Ireland, because money) .
So there is a good chance law keepers won't give FB any flex when FB is trying to sell a physical product,
a think for which there are much more regulations then for FB itself (like health&safety, proper advertisement etc.). For example they will very likely need to put a clear readable "requires internet","requires a FB account" to be used note on their boxes (and internet sale descriptions). Because a large degree of the usability is restricted without a FB account. Which is something I believe FB doesn't like at all ;=)
