If companies successfully argue that maximising revenue is a legitimate interest and thus, don't need users consent, then the GPDR will worth less the paper it was written on.
I would be extremely surprised if the EU goes through all this tome, effort, and money just to let corporations continue with business as usual

- hshehehjdjdjd 8y agoEu cookie law is one prior example of this. That worked out to “business as usual” in the end, didn’t it?
- merinowool 8y ago> I would be extremely surprised if the EU goes through all this tome, effort, and money just to let corporations continue with business as usual I wouldn't. EU is all about bureaucracy and hordes of civil servants doing meaningless jobs. If GDPR becomes fruitless like Cookie Law, then they'll say tough luck, hire more civil servants and start working on another useless law.
- blub 8y agoThere was a lot of lobbying done to water down the GDPR. But on the other hand, corporations are all about unscrupulous behaviour and doing the minimum possible (if that) to claim they respect the law. If the GDPR works, they'll just hire more lobbyists.
