I assume EU regulations apply to all EU persons, not just those in the EU? If so, is there a way for anyone in the world to become an EU person without giving up one's citizenship elsewhere just so I can be a party to GDPR and now this?
If you want to gain most of the protections of the GDPR, you could just use an EU proxy server, and have a registered email address with a well known European email provider. Your rights would be limited in the ability to file a complaint against a particular data processor, but you would get all the fringe benefits of law-abiding companies estimating that you fall under GDPR regulations.
