Nope, the GDPR is not at all restricted to private copies. The GDPR has special jargon for publishing; the GDPR calls it "disclosure (Art. 4 (2) GDPR) to an unspecified number of unspecified recipients (Art. 4 (9) GDPR), including ones in third countries (Chapter 5) in a repetitive (Art 49 (1) GDPR) fashion".
