Has the EU sued and won against any company who is not located in the EU?

That's not a good test, because the law is still relatively new, and it takes a while for litigation to make its way through the system. We also don't necessarily know who has settled out of court.

Would you like to be a test case for us?

I would love to be a test case on it, I am not in a position.

I'd be extremely interested for a company who doesn't operate in the EUs being brought to court and what other countries are willing to help the EU exercise those judgements if any.
