This European law may have a chilling effect on the Internet as a whole. Most smaller and non-commercial websites simply do not have the manpower or capacity to comply with it, at least not completely. Sites owned and operated outside of Europe may simply decide to block European users as a whole, leaving Europe only with access to sites owned by companies large enough to supply the manpower and capacity to comply with GDPR.
