How do you propose they determine that you’re a part of the EU if not by IP address and if they can’t track members of the EU?

The point is that they're i) blocking people who aren't covered by GDPR. ii) not actually exempting themselves from GDPR because they still have all the data from EU residents from before the blocking.

Blocking EU residents as a GDPR protection is dumb.
