Death by 1000 cuts. While many changes sound technical, there are the rights of people behind each "definition" in the GDPR. The changes range from the cutting back on what is even considered "personal data" and therefore protected, all the way to limiting the "right to access" so that employees, journalists or reseachers would be unable to access their own data anymore. Changes also allow lenient access to "pull" data from smartphones, PCs or connected devices or largely allow companies to use personal data from Europeans for (commercial) AI training. While companies often argue that the GDPR would be a "burden" the reality is that not even 1.3% of all GDPR complaints lead to a fine. In Ireland only 0.6% of fines were so far paid.
