Ah yes, such accountability. 5 whole ass fines (for an evil company like Google that probably deserves 10x more) of which they made the money back in less than 3 days lmao

I can't believe someone who seems as smart as you seem to be can look at that and be like "yes, this is meaningful" lmao. GDPR had absolutely no impact whatsoever. It's the most pointless piece of legislation ever passed by the EU and the competition is pretty stiff in that category. They fucking regulated the shape of fucking bananas and cucumbers. They ban companies from saying drinking water hydrates you.

Look, feel free to believe the EU gives half a fuck, in reality it's just the same bunch of neoliberal vampires who need to get publicly executed for their crimes against the people.
