But the issue isn't "international law" in the general case (which, indeed, would be very hard), it's the specific case of the GDPR, the solution to which (for this particular site, which only serves static content) is mind-numbingly trivial: don't collect personal data, don't set cookies. That's it. That's all you have to do.
- CodesInChaos 5y agoYou're only talking about the technial part. But there are non technical requirements as well: In many cases you need to name a person responsible for data protection, a privacy policy, a list of services you're sharing data with,... Though I'm not sure if a local US newspaper even needs to be compliant, since it doesn't target EU residents and thus might be out of scope.
