Of course in the marginal cases. But even simple restrictions greatly reduce liability. And anyways running afoul of gdpr will not affect you much if you don't plan to do business in the EU
No but what is the EU going to do to a US company that will likely never set foot in Europe. Unless of course Mr Trump is keen on getting a golden visa
The European Commission sent me some questions about competing with Google. I couldn't figure out if it was because I was a search engine, or if it was just that I had an app that competed with some part of Google.
Either way, I asked my lawyers if I had to answer, given that we had zero revenue coming in from Europe. They said no, I didn't for this kind of request, but they could easily send me a more vehement request that I did need to answer.
I ignored the EC, and didn't get that second letter.
BTW, my lawyers are smart enough that I had the only search engine threatened by but never sued by Perfect 10.
But indeed, you are correct that geoblocks reduce liability.
