Not so accidentally since Ireland has pursued being the place for Big Tech to park their EU's HQs in through incentives provided by the Irish government. With that comes big responsibilities to the bloc as well, I just challenge the notion of "accidentally" since Ireland designed itself on tax schemes to be a hotspot for the HQs of international Big Tech.
The Irish DPC also had to be forced by the EUDPB to comply with GDPR enforcement, it wasn't out of goodwill that the Irish DPC got so active in 2023.
