One of the biggest, and most talked about, elements of the GDPR is the power for regulators to fine businesses that don't comply with it. If an organisation doesn't process an individual's data in the correct way, it can be fined. If it requires and doesn't have a data protection officer, it can be fined. If there's a security breach, it can be fined.
These monetary penalties will be decided upon by Denham's office and the GDPR states smaller offences could result in fines of up to €10 million or two per cent of a firm's global turnover (whichever is greater). Those with more serious consequences can have fines of up to €20 million or four per cent of a firm's global turnover (whichever is greater). These are larger than the £500,000 penalty the ICO can currently wield and, according to analysis, last year's fines would be 79 times higher under the new regulation.
The Yuropoor rangeban on Jow Forums can't come soon enough.

>communist europe figures out a new way to fuel their cow-tit economy
Yes very interesting
Oliver Reed
cool, i think google and facebook are big bad guys and we should get them
Gavin Clark
They're's allowing an adjustment period. Nobody is passing out fines. Yet.
Josiah Foster
Does Hiro even cares about the GDPR?
Leo Hughes
He will when someone sues him for noncompliance. Then he'll just start banning all Yuropoos.
Carson King
What a great day that will be
Owen Foster
I will miss you too user

Henry Robinson
Good

>People on Jow Forums are defending Google and Facebook's handling of user privacy. What the actual fuck?
Levi Hughes
If you care about privacy so much why are you on Jow Forums? You know Hiroshima is tracking every click and keypress you do through Google Analytics right?
Isaiah Clark
awesome
Blake Reed
>hasn't disabled that shit at the browser level Wow. So this is the mighty hacker 'Jow Forums' that I've heard so much about.
Colton Stewart
If everything's working fine for you why do you need a nanny government to protect you? Also you are a hypocrite regardless of whether you disable the actual tracking or not. Either way, you are supporting a site that tracks its users.
Austin Lopez
nice unsourced clickbait
Justin Baker
imagine being so gullible and out of touch with reality to think gdpr is about protecting people's privacy and not just a convenient pretext to control people's access to information.
>Either way, you are supporting a site that tracks its users. I don't care that it tracks its users. I just don't want it tracking me. I really don't see the hypocrisy. >If everything's working fine for you why do you need a nanny government to protect you? I don't. My country is leaving the EU for this very reason.
Adam Rivera
>>People on Jow Forums are defending Google and Facebook's handling of user privacy. >le What the actual fuck meme I hate Google and Facebook, but I hate the EU even more. Also, fuck off to reddit.
Nathaniel Wilson
>fb and google simply don't pay What now, commies? Going to invade US of fucking A with your imaginary army and force them to pay?
>not pressing both buttons >wanting to take sides for faceless evil corporate entities and evil faceless failed EUtopias
Julian Collins
I'd rather fuck over the giants with some legislation that doesn't affect most people/small companies. I don't want to bother with some privacy crap on my small underwater basket weaving forum because of a law outside my jurisdiction.
Lincoln Hughes
then dont live in a orwellian shithole? Dont use google/fb shit
Daniel Cox
>google and fb can pull out of a 520 million first world market
LOL
Benjamin Bailey
ireland is paying it
Isaac Sullivan
Proof that Jow Forums literally contrarian. Fuck this gay earth.
Jordan Roberts
More like >fb and google lose a lot of money >comply with GDPR instead of pulling out of the EU because money Free market wins again
Austin Morales
Jow Forums does not operate in Europe. He has no obligation to EU laws.
Robert Harris
They would lose even more money serving EU users without tracking. Server costs are not free.
Robert Brooks
Just don't post if you have no idea what you're talking about, thanks.
Adrian Morris
>all news that is contrary to my preconceptions is fake wew lad
Lincoln Watson
Go ahead and show me in the legislation where it states that a non-EU citizen operating servers in non-EU territory have to obey the policy. Have fun getting blocked from Jow Forums because Hiro isn't going to get fined and EU has no power over him to force him to change.
>the wealth of the customers don't matter lol, why are yuropoors so dumb? we're not talking about a country's economic strength but rather the viability of a company in a market. here ppp matters.
Chase Garcia
I'm not him but please explain how Europe is going to be able to do anything to someone who is not in Europe. Do you think they are going to extradite Hiroshima?
Anthony Carter
>I can buy more bread with my $1 of local currency Derp
Also, which part of GDPR does Jow Forums violate? I don't remember them asking for any personal data. Even credit card processing is done by some other firm on some other site.
Joseph Roberts
oh good point, the UK left so it'd be even smaller
Yeah, because there will only be four countries in the EU when they leave.
Logan Campbell
Yea, this is very unsetteling, why aren't you happy these jew tech conglomerates are getting kicked in the ass until they fix themselves? You're not losing anything are you?
Ayden Gutierrez
So if Google and/or Facebook actually do fork over that $9.3 billion dollars in fines, who gets the money and what is it put toward?
No fines are going to be paid. Google and Facebook are going to come to an (((agreement))) with the EU where they will filter and delete all content that is deemed """inappropriate""" for EU users.
Gavin Walker
Whats the data sauce for this? I think this is massively off today already.
Kayden Cox

>there is now a service out there to literally block EU from your website
LOL, enjoy your bubble EU
Jason Adams
This looks no different for burgerland tho.
Jonathan Fisher
that's not even what the law is about you idiot
Austin Kelly
>i interpret law intentions literally and am unable to see how they can be used outside of what is the stated intention
Silly britbong, you never had a choice in whether you're tracked.
Asher Clark
>everything is about censoring my epic redpilled opinions. i am such a danger to the world order that the european union is conspiring before our very eyes to shut me down
Jason Flores
>i am such a gullible fool i cannot fathom the possibility i'm being taken for a ride for your own good i'd change that attitude.
Sebastian Clark
If you're a Jow Forums pass user hiro has to provide you with all saved details about you on request. Don't forget this.
Joseph Morgan

Wyatt Bennett
If I were you, I'd try to be a little less of a schizophrenic nazi.
Gabriel Thompson
Even worse for australia? Its just the rest of the world getting more productive.
Ryder Nelson
GDPR is pretty much patent trolling on a global scale and backed by dozens of government. Really pathetic. You can tell it's all about fining people who couldn't make the deadline.
