I vaguely (and very possibly incorrectly) remember something about the GDPR still applying to EU citizens who are traveling outside of the EU. Does the same kind of thing not apply to these new digital marketplace laws?

AFAIR gdpr is not based on location but on citizenship so even if you are outside of the EU they should not be able to process your data (thus quite a lot of places improved either the process or blocked EU users)..

App store should be the same, especially considering that you configure location in your iPhone profile so that should be relevant here..
