As long as YCombinator allow users from Europe, they have to adhere to the rules. It does not matter whether there is a local entity or not, they serve European users.
If a European company provides a service to US users, they have to adhere to US law too.

- switch007 3y agoSounds nice on paper. What action will the EU take against them, and how? Do you know of any cases where they’ve taken action against companies such as YC? And do you believe in other countries enforcing their laws way beyond their borders? I’m not against GDPR, I’m against other countries enforcing their laws in my country.
