The major benefit that GDPR has brought (at least in our company, and I suspect in other companies as well), is an increased emphasis on not storing user data that is not needed. The idea that user data is useful, but it’s also a liability. This likely will lead to certain private data that companies would otherwise have saved, because why not, not being saved anymore, which would reduce the damage caused by a breach, which will never show up in numbers and stats.
