Re: Where is the UK in all of this ?
"if your country deems *all analytics* to be illegal according to GDPR?"
Did you read the ruling? GDPR is about PI data being sent to jurisdictions where it won't have the required levels of protection. If Google and other analytic operators choose to do the processing inside the areas covered by GDPR and only export the aggregated, anonymised data, then they will be fully compliant.
"Ummm. No. I will simply geo-block IP addresses from there"
That's fine by me. If you don't trade in the EU or UK, have no presence in the EU or UK, then no one will miss you.
