I thought that law was only for the UK. Not sure why a US based forum would need to consider that.
It's EU.

@scottalanmiller still not US.

It is a grey area:
"More controversially, the GDPR also will apply to businesses established outside the EU if their processing activities relate to the offering of goods or services to individuals in the EU or to the monitoring of such individuals’ behavior. This provision expands the territorial scope of the GDPR well beyond the EU, essentially making it global law. There are some limits in place on the GDPR’s reach—the regulation makes clear that having a commerce-oriented website that is accessible to EU residents does not by itself constitute offering goods or services. Rather, a business must show intent to draw EU residents as customers, for example, by using a local language or currency."

Any company which has customer data from the EU should abide by it. I believe it isn't enforceable until 2018 for EU companies and 2019 for Non-EU based companies

Not enforceable ever for non-EU companies. That breaks international laws right there.

So I am referring to the EU Data Directive which is supposed to replace the Safe Harbor Law.
"On 4 May 2016, the official texts of the Regulation and the Directive have been published in the EU Official Journal in all the official languages. While the Regulation will enter into force on 24 May 2016, it shall apply from 25 May 2018. The Directive enters into force on 5 May 2016 and EU Member States have to transpose it into their national law by 6 May 2018."
http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/
I cant find any information to confirm that non EU countries must abide by the Data Directive, but data handling techniques outside the EU are mentioned.

The only reason it applies to companies like Google for example... is because they are actually an established company in the EU (and most other countries).
Mangolassi, for example, would be a US only based company. So it wouldn't apply.
But imho, just because you don't have to, doesn't mean it wouldn't be nice to offer the courtesy.

Remember that ML doesn't collect personal data, so there is nothing to remove. All exposures of personal info are in the form of posts or personally managed data.

Correct. Although as a security minded site, it isn't a bad idea to allow users to control their own data.
However, Other industries such as healthcare in the US will be affected. Even for US based companies.

The account name is the only possible piece of exposure. If you don't use your real name there, then nothing exists.
