The Python Software Foundation on European cybersecurity

And yet, every second website does just trick the user into clicking "I agree" and is never punished for it. It seems the great European bureaucracy only has the bandwidth to prosecute the Facebooks and Googles of the world.

It would be neat if, like, every website with only an "I agree" button and no "I disagree" could get a $1000 fine (commercial sites) or $50 (personal sites) with just a few minutes of paperwork, let's say, upon report and maximum once a week. I suspect that would fall afoul of some rules against summary punishment. Now, no Apple or Netflix is going to care about a $1000 fine, but those ones can be fed through the big lumbering bureaucracy... meanwhile, say, Stack Exchange's CEO having to personally respond to a court order every week would be a significant motivation to fix the problem. (just an example - Stack Exchange recently fixed this problem)
