Facebook and google takeout only exist because of gdpr.
Right to delete (not just deactivate) your account only exists due to gdpr.
Right to opt out at all only exists because of gdpr, and many companies do actually stick to it.
That many don't follow the spirit of the regulation is not really the fault of the regulation. Thing is its not been tested much in the courts yet, but the cases have really started last year so hopefully more enforcement incoming.
