GDPR does not only apply to people of the EU, GDPR applies within the jurisdiction of the states which have implemented it. GDPR protects Musk when he flies to Europe, you'd have to treat that data differently than flights within the US.

TIL, thanks!

This is all well and good but even if the EU claims jurisdiction over people who aren’t in the EU publishing information about the EU (not clear from this article that this is the case; it just says that it applies to you if you are in the EU even if you’re not an EU citizen), how would they enforce that?

Relatively easily? Even if your business has zero presence in the EU, other businesses handling money for you likely do.

US company using Paypal to accept money from US persons? Paypal has presence in the EU and will hand your money over.

I've never heard of this happening and, besides this, ElonJet was being operated by a private individual and not for profit. You think they're going to get his bank account shut down over it? I can't imagine the bank entertaining that.

The elonjet twitter has nothing to do with anything, it's just a bot reposting adsbexchange.

The whole reason for this tangent is a claim somewhere upthread that it’s violating the GDPR.

That tangent was regarding the data sources used by the twitter account.
