Out of curiosity must you be a citizen to exercise this? For example in American our bill of rights applies to anyone on US soil. So if you're a tourist you have the same right to 4th amendment prohibitions on searches (once over the border), 5th amendment right to remain silent etc. If I flew to say, Ireland, and make a right to be forgotten request while in Ireland, is that valid? Or must I be a US citizen? |

> Under Article 3, Section 2, of the Regulation, GDPR reaches data controllers and data processors who are not established in the EU when they process "personal data of data subjects who are in the Union" -- where the processing of that data relates to "the offering of goods or services... to such data subjects in the Union" and/or tracking their behavior to the extent it "takes place within the Union."
> Note the key phrase that keeps cropping up: "in the Union."
> "[T]here are lots of uncertainties as to what [GDPR's territorial scope] is and should be," Michèle Finck, a research fellow at the Max Planck Institute, told Security Now. "Most people seem to agree that the relevant criterion is whether you're based in the EU at the moment data is collected -- citizen or not."
