"The GDPR applies globally to the information of EU citizens"
Actually it applies to data subjects in the EU, so US citizens (and other non-EU nationals) while present in Europe are also protected - insofar as anyone is actually protected. The GDPR is emerging as having very small teeth except where mega-corporations or massive data breaches are concerned. As always, de minimis non curat lex and most individuals seem to be minimal as far as this law is concerned. Here in the UK, enforcement is so poorly resourced that it not only takes some 3 months for a case officer to be assigned to a complaint, but (I would hazard) the majority of complaints by single individuals are apparently not pursued.
