Re: Time for a mega GDPR related fine on Google

Unlikely as they will do everything possible to evade, appeal make excuses and then not pay. GDPR looked as though it might just be able to take on the likes of Google and Facebook however the reality is that it still proving almost impossible to get them to comply & pay the fines.

The most important thing appears to be "Oh, sorry, we made a mistake, it won't happen again" and then continue with business as usual.

They appear to be utterly untouchable and it will only be when they stuff up something so badly in the US that whatever administration is in power might just take notice.
