They're selling at a whooping $79/month, a single php script that does not even check any sort of authentication or API key, and only does a dumb lookup against a GeoIP database : https://gdpr-shield.io/check.php

And this is called by this tiny javascript script https://code.gdpr-shield.io/script.js that just.. displays an overlay div when you're in the EU. Smells like scam when you're willing to sell a whole product that can be coded in 20 minutes for up to $1000 a year.

He's running a really shady business.

Which is illegal to begin with. You even forgot to replace the part that explains what the service does and left the part that says that gdpr shield "provides a social media management tool".

You're selling something that just basically does a geoip lookup, and then tries to block people from an entire continent, with pure JS, which can be easily avoided, by the way. I'm shooting buffer an email to let them know you're infringing on their legal material.

This could be a false positive, but thought I'd spread the word, I was wondering why it wasnt loading.. Will have a look at that JS and see if it's trying to leverage some browser exploits somehow.
