As long as fines are a drop in the ocean there's No Privacy. Having privacy -but thinking you do not- stops free thought and speech, so letting a lack of trust be the norm is basically the same as stifling free speech. An institution like the Court of Justice of the European Union could pay itself if it went after Big Business. The only conclusion I can draw is that no-one (or not enough) in power actually wants to stop leaks and give citizens both privacy and a feeling of trust. In other words, privacy policies are worthless without enforcement, which we don't have.
- IndySun 6y agoGood points. You're right inasmuch that leaks are not agnostic. They can happen unwillingly or willingly, and whom they help or hurt is going to depend on the weighing up of the overall damage/reward.
