I feel like EU is ahead of the curve here with cookie pop-ups. In order to comply don't you have to go out of your way to block EU viewers? At least that's how it seems to be handled by ones that care, la times I believe was one example.

And I know some of their other policies specifically call out fining based on global revenue, not EU revenue.

At some point, people will realize that companies without a physical EU footprint can just ignore it. Has anyone _ever_ been extradited over cookie banners?

The "problem" is that you could get on a list to be denied entry at the border if you ever choose to travel.

Who? The CEO? I like European travel more than most, but there's definitely a price you could pay me to give that up. LatAm is wonderful too.
