The GDPR and the broader EU Digital Rulebook
summary
Panel argues GDPR is still fit for purpose but implementation is the bottleneck: startups report 60% view GDPR as a business challenge, 97% of popular apps use dark patterns, and unfair digital practices cost €8bn/year. Commission pushes record-keeping simplification (targeting firms up to 500 employees) and a procedural regulation to fix one‑stop timelines (no more five‑year cases). Enforcement tools being built include coordinated DPAs actions (Google case still pending after 6.5 years), EDPB/AI‑board guidance, codes of conduct and a proposed digital enforcement strategy.
