Other users have written about GDPR, but just FYI: There are a lot of laws that apply worldwide. You might not like it, but states really do have laws in place that they are applying to everybody in the world. Thailand has draconian laws about insulting their king and they totally do not care if you insulted him inside or outside of the country. They can't arrest you whereever you are, but if you ever try to visit Thailand, you will get arrested. And many countries also have laws in place about stuff that their citizen do outside of the country.
