Damn, if they had PII in a public bucket like that it’s criminally negligent. Well, at least it should be but I’m no lawyer
It's at least a hefty fine in the EU - enough to kill a business.
The higher of €20m or 4% of global annual turnover.
Indeed, and the kicker is that 4% is on turnover, not profit. That can really hurt.

Yeah it has to be that way otherwise all these venture capital funded businesses that never actually make a profit could just do whatever they want, and considering that's basically every startup it would essentially neuter to the law.
Ah publicly exposed bucket. Tale as old as time.
