Agreed.
All they had to do was to legislate a statutory amount someone could claim in case of a privacy violation and the problems would've disappeared overnight by companies set up to litigate on behalf of consumers in exchange for a cut.

- Nextgrid 3y agoWould it be bad in this case? We have a chronic problem of lack of GDPR enforcement and it's clear regulators are underfunded/incompetent/overwhelmed/not interested in doing their job. If the regulators can't, let someone else do the job.
- bryanrasmussen 3y agothe fact that in the U.S you can sue larger and more powerful organizations for their having harmed you is a clear benefit in comparison to some European systems (the way this works can vary between land). In Denmark and I assume in Norway if you have been harmed by a governmental organization you have to complain and spend lots of time to deal with the problem and in the end get nothing for the time, you get a worthless apology and change of policy for what harmed you in the first place, and then wasted years, and nothing is done to right the hurt or damage you suffered. Better the American way as an opportunity, however limited, to make the powerful suffer in kind.
