That would be really stupid. The fines are set by courts, not politicians. So by pressuring politicians the US just makes an enemy out of the EU without changing the verdict. Good thing though is that GDPR shows that most European courts try to keep fines low for offenders actin in good faith.
- bigDinosaur 4y agoThe US leveraging its immense economic and political power would be...really stupid? Do you think it doesn't do that? I'm confused. It does that all the time, and if I was a US citizen I would expect it to do just that, although obviously preferably in favour of consumers (which this legislation very possibly is, so to be clear I'm not saying it'd actually be a good thing if the US used its influence to water anything down).
