I was curious what the maximum fine for Google could be under GDPR.
Google's 2018 revenue was $136.22 billion. GDPR allows for a maximum fine of 4% of global turnover.
At a maximum 4%, GDPR could impose up to a $5.5 billion fine. I agree, getting something closer to the maximum might help the situation. Although ultimately, my bet is that Google is already baking the 4% revenue risk into their business model. If that's the case, GDPR's maximum penalty should be reconsidered.
