GDPR does not prevent foreign intelligence agencies from profiling you

Do you have a link to what foreign intelligence agencies you mean cause than I am going to use my right to be forgotten. Cause yea that will work.

Any SIGINT agency that deals with foreign intelligence is likely to have most of your deepest darkest secrets. The ones with most media coverage are NSA and GCHQ. Looking it up isn’t likely to yield very insightful results, other than perhaps some queer documents leaked by Snowden

Probably not considering I live in a generally low risk country (NL) and they can’t have something that doesn’t exist. International intelligence in GDPR countries generally goes through the own countries government unless there are signs that they cannot be trusted.
And they will be really wary of using illegally obtained data on somebody in NL since that will cause for a lot of attention on them and probably issues. So even if they have relevant data they should be hesitant of using it.

But it does in the EU and similar laws exist in other countries. I can do nothing about the corruption in the states
Ps. it does exist in Amerika

Not completely, but the Brussels effect still applies to some degree.
