Practical differences in privacy aren’t much at the moment. Yes, GDPR should be powerful, but in reality European’s online habits, communications, and many purchases are still tracked, stored, and auditable by private data brokers. Perhaps Europeans have significantly less medical information sold to third party data brokers. And likely somewhat less of their purchase history. After all, Europeans still use Discord/Reddit/etc. Much of the tracking is done by shady third parties with bots, who ignore GDPR. Or via browser extensions, malware, large-scale data theft and dumps, shady VPNs that get advertised heavily on YouTube, third-party tracking cookies, etc.
