    GDPR has never stoped them breaking laws. Fines are the cost of doing business. When we give anti-libre software our data, it’s game over.

      That’s not at all true. After they get fined, they change their website. They can’t afford to pay hundreds of millions for repeating the same offense.

      One example: after they got fucked hard by Irish courts, the “deny” button is just as promonant to opt-out of cookies on Google websites as it is to “accept”. It used to be a couple clicks to reject, and they got majorly fucked for that.
