EasyDNS has an interesting position on GDPR compliance for businesses not based in the EU:
"All prior history of internet governance would have us taking the position that being a Canadian company we are going to operate by Canadian law, and not by European law."
Also:
"Sure, Google and Facebook and Apple do have to worry about this, because they’ve domiciled their foreign HQ’s in Ireland so that they can shelter all that foreign revenue from US taxation."

@starbreaker They have to obey by EU standards in cases where they are serving EU customers really.
Still... implementing GDPR is just good manners at this point.
@mareklach That's my understanding as well, but it'll be interesting to see how it works out in court.
@starbreaker @mareklach If they have no EU assets, they can get fined but good luck to the EU on actually collecting that money.
