FWIW, I can’t access some US news sites from Europe because they “value my privacy and haven’t implemented GDPR yet.”

  I wish there were more news sites with a light-weight EU equivalent. https://eu.usatoday.com https://eu.usatoday.com comes to mind.

  It's pity we're excluded from Freedom Tracking

  Yeah, it's a bit funny how (Small Regional News Site) thinks they'll be the main targets of GDPR regulators. While it's good they try to respect it, the fact that's there's an fundamental "local" nature to them, makes it very unlikely. Very very unlikely.

    A lot of the blocks are down to "Small Regional News Site" really being "small regional front for a large news organisation running a single platform" that seems to have just made a blanket assessment. I don't think many genuinely small independent regional sites have bothered. E.g. Lee Enterprises is one of the publishers who still blocks European users, and they own 75+ newspapers. If you're in the EU and get "451: Unavailable due to legal reasons", it's a good chance it's a Lee Enterprises paper.

  Understandable, it has been passed only five years ago and been applicable for three.
