Holy moley.

This MIGHT (i am not a lawyer) only apply to "organizations" and/or
"businesses". At least, that's what the FAQ in the official site for the
topic is implying:

"The GDPR not only applies to organisations located within the EU but it
will also apply to organisations located outside of the EU if they offer
goods or services to, or monitor the behaviour of, EU data subjects. It
applies to all companies processing and holding the personal data of data
subjects residing in the European Union, regardless of the company’s
location."
