- alpaca128 3y agoEuropean courts have jurisdiction in the EU, and CNBC is accessible in the EU unlike some other US websites, so they have to follow GDPR at least for EU visitors. And as far as I know cookie rejection must not influence the basic functionality of the site.
- TylerE 3y agoOk, how does an EU court enforce an EU law on a US company with US assets? They can’t. That’s my point.
- matkoniecz 3y agoYes, if this company has no assets in EU and no transactions with EU entities then enforcing this may be hard.
