It's something that basically every big block is trying to do, the US has enforced DMCA and other stuff on other providers as well. Though in principle, GDPR only covers EU citizens - if you would be selling a product from Australia that exploded upon using it for the first time to an EU citizen, wouldn't you expect EU authorities to go after you as well?

No, I'd expect Australian regulators to be the ones that went after you in that case.

Hmm, if you're selling into the EU, it's EU regulations that you have to follow, not Australian. Maybe we just misunderstood each other, I'm talking about shipping a product to the EU.
