Note that I said "de facto", not "de jure". Nobody would bother suing a non profit that doesn't have EU offices unless you were very large and/or very prominent and/or doing something really nefarious about the data you have. And even then, suing an US company with no EU standing in front of an EU court from an EU citizen complaint is far from easy. The same reason that if, say, Texas introduce a law that says everyone commenting on a texan website needs to be polite and I post a comment with some name calling, suing me as someone not from Texas nor the US would not be very doable, even though I technically infringe on that law. |

It's been done: https://blogs.ch.cam.ac.uk/pmr/2010/11/21/english-libels-law...
The libel situation has slightly improved since then.
