Business Fucking GDPR - Compliance Questions - GoFuckYourself.com

Hey guys,

I am in the process of finishing off a wordpress website project outside Adult.

It's a blog review website, I am trying to get the website GDPR compliant for launch time, but I don't know if I even need to be compliant, and if I do what kind of shit do I have to do.

Its not a members website but it does allow blog post commenting through the Disqus plugin.

I don't think I'm even gathering anyone's data to be honest, plus I'm not in the EU I'm from Australia.

Can anyone please help me out with some advice -

Do I even need to comply with GDPR ?

If so in what way, do I add the annoying popup ("This website uses cookies to ensure you get the best experience on our website More info") ?

If I do need to be compliant, does anyone have any advice on how to make the GDPR popup only run for users from EU countries.

Any help from the gfy fam would be great.

Regards,

you're worrying too much IMO, you're not collecting anything that's actually personal or sensitive and you're not in the EU so you'll be fine if you ignore it. worst case scenario you get your site blocked by some EU countries. Ridiculously unlikely

gdpr was written by old uninformed fucks who don't understand anything about server logs or browser fingerprints or even what a cookie is so the language used is some bullshit that applies to literally every site that stores access logs

you seen any gdpr popups on pornhub/xvideos/xhamster lately? no, you haven't

so I'm pretty sure your blog will be fine

you get email 2 warnings before they sue you so it is not an "instant trouble" kind of situation...who ever gets anal about you storing his info has to ask you to remove his info first...if you comply then no problem...

If you are an Australian individual, do not have a physical or virtual presence within the EU and do not host your website inside the EU and do not use a domain from an EU country registry then you do not have to do anything to comply. Disclaimer: IANAL

Eu laws usualy affect big companies, so far i never heard how someone little was screwed due EU law, and dont think it's possible to police for EU every entrepreneur on world.
