So an EU business has to treat me under GDPR if I’m a EU citizen even if I’m abroad but a US business does not.

That kinda makes sense?

Seems so, but the EU business has to treat all citizens under the GDPR, regardless of nationality.

I wonder if this could be attractive? "By EU law, we won't sell your data" is stronger than an American company's promise.
