this is true, but kinda pointless, you are not gonna fight the EU over this... Several countries in the EU (UK, Ireland, ...) can assign personal liability for intentionally ignoring privacy law, in which case someone in your company is basically going to end up a wanted man in Europe

That is an interpretation of the law and is not in accord with what the ICO (the regulator) is saying. If you have a site called "UK Expats" and you block EU IPs you will still be liable since your site is offering a service to EU citizens. A less extreme use case but equally applicable, you have a shoe store in the US and your style is liked by french citizens living in the US, since a considerable amount of traffic is coming from EU citizens you are under GDPR. even if it is only 20%, even if they are in the US, even if you blocked all European IPs
