The fine says "$20 million or 4% global revenue, whichever is greater". That definitely penalizes small companies more. >And then the big players will use Hollywood accounting but for data - make a bunch of small companies with little revenue that handle the actual data and "sell" those services to the mothership. This is why there would be a threshold on data itself. Come on, a guy running a forum with 100 users from his basement shouldn't be expected to legally have as much responsibility as somebody running a website that has revenue in the millions. It just discourages start ups and hobby developers, because nobody wants to open themselves up to "denial of service attacks" where people get the DPA to audit you because they didn't like what you had to say on Twitter. Just don't run the small site and there is no risk of that. But I guess Europe is already so weak in the web industry that it might be irrelevant. We're going to rely on American websites anyway.
