To be eligible for things like a GDPR Data deletion request etc, is it enough that I am a citizen or must I be a resident? ty :)

Borders on the Internet get weird. Effectively, as quoted above, GDPR applies if you do business in the EU even if you aren't there. Things are murkier if you're not in the EU when the data gathering takes place and the operator is outside as well, though.

Also, not technically a country.
