With a fine of only $100,000 Norway could destroy Facebook's & Instagram's business model relying on personalized ads.

It must be nice to live in a country that actively protects its people.

I would love for the EU to just go all-out hardcore privacy protection and fine GAFAM et al. into fucking oblivion for not complying. If they shut down services, that’s probably for the better, although it will be a rough awakening for most people (probably including myself)
