Not complaining, I prefer it this way. Hope you will sort the issues quickly.

The ban will be IP-based for IPs in EU countries, and it goes into effect at approximately 2PM Pacific Time.
Me too. And I can see I am definitely subscribed to "account update" emails. I'm not sure how they would decide if I was European or not, can't see a tick box for that in the profile page.
Where are you located?
The UK.

Interesting times these are.

Why is brexit relevant?
Post brexit, GDPR will no longer apply to the UK.
