The investigation into WhatsApp was scoped solely to problems with its privacy policy, and how important information was either confusing or missing. The investigation explicitly did not address how data was processed, merely WhatsApp's obligation to inform users about certain aspects of how their data was handled.
Within that limited Scope, WhatsApp was fined 225 million Euros for those deficiencies, which is still the second-largest GDPR fine to date.
