The European solution is to make it so you need a data protection delegate to
keep an automated archive even if you are not sharing any information with
third parties.

The organism in charge of handling GDPR sanctions is officially overloaded with
bullshit sanctions.

The current scene in Europe is clearly designed for Big Companies which can
afford to outsource the legals of GDPR methods, check the boxes, run an anual
audit, and keep selling people's data away. Meanwhile your mom-and-dad business
is operating illegaly because they don't know (or can afford) better and are
liable to hefty fines for stupid violations.

The place I work for once had an incident with a debt collection agency. When
they phoned the debt collectors and asked them for information regarding the
debt we supposedly owed, they could not do so because it involved a patient and
therefore was unshareable personal data.

We get cookie laws and heavy ToS documents nobody reads as part of the GDPR
agreement but we barely get any of the real problems solved at all. In typical
Spaniard style, we have thrown in resource intensive solution which does not
solve 10% of the problem and we are calling it an absolute success.
