Sure, it technically applies - but I doubt it will have any effect. Compare it to hacking across border where there is no extradition. At least until some form of GDPR is rolled into international trade treaties.

If you never set foot onto EU soil, you can safely ignore the Gdpr. You might be blacklisted by EU ISPs though.

I very much doubt GDPR penalties will be levied at individuals - even when a business entity is wholly controlled by an individual. Blocking of criminal services does seem probable in extreme cases - but so far most of Europe has been pretty lenient wrt outright censorship as far as I know. Filtering certain child pornografi content being an exception.

On a side note, the cp filter is scary - as the infrastructure implies the existence of censorship infrastructure ready for abuse in the event of a power shift.
