*shrugs* Me hurting the EU's feelings is rather low on the list of things I care about.

Sadly this isn't true. While I doubt the EU regulators are going to come head hunting for companies any time soon they 
do have mechanisms in place to sanction companies who don't do business in the EU and the scope is clearly intended to 
reach where ever the data of EU natural persons is being held.

I asked one of the EU regulators at RSA how they intended to enforce GDPR violations on businesses that don't operate 
in their jurisdiction and without hesitation he told me they'd use civil courts to sue the offending companies.

If you don't have operations in the EU, you can not so politely tell the EU to piss off.

What about the likely truth that if anyone from Europe mails the list, then 
every mail server operator with subscribers to the list must follow the 
GDPR Article 14 notification requirements, as the few exceptions appear to 
not apply (unless you’re just running an archive).
