This is nonsense. GDPR is cheap to comply with: following best practice, you should easily be able to comply with it.

Here's the question: are you willing to bet 20 million euros on your best practices?

That's the maximum penalty as I understand it: https://gdpr.report/news/2017/06/16/gdpr-guidelines-conseque... - and that doesn't count the cost of litigation before being fined.

This has already been posted in here, but I count GDPR compliance as being able to respond to this: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/nightmare-letter-subject-acce...

Even if I think I'm completely compliant, I think I'd make the decision to limit it to North America until I had enough revenue to hire a separate data protection officer.

Yes. I’m 100% willing to risk it, because I have a basic knowledge of how regulatory processes in the EU generally work.

The LinkedIn example is excellent, because it lots all the things that you should have already known about and been able to do with personal data.
