GDPR applies to any company with a significant prescene in the EU. I think it's hard to believe GoDaddy doesn't. They sell large number of domains with EU based TLDs. They've even bought EU based hosting companies.

GDPR doesn't apply to companies that only have a tiny portion of EU customers. Good examples would be: small local news, US only shops. (K-Mart, gun shops, etc)

GDPR being an EU law doesn't matter so much when there are so many treaties allowing fines to be forced. This means not being in the EU just makes it more expensive to deal with.
