Yeah. I'm entirely convinced that if not in GDPR, they would have found a method to go after these journalists in another law. GDPR has the added benefit of being able to blame it on "we have to comply with EU laws" though.

This quick pick of GDPR to abuse certainly says something about the potential for abuse and it's palatability for those that do abuse law.
