We do all realise they already ignore data laws in the UK (for instance) by not disposing of old data? Why should they make any better effort for this new EU law if it happens?

Maybe if it gets enough publicity... but even then I have low hopes.

The question rather should be, why is nothing being done about those breaches in the UK. Passing legislation to firewall non-compliant sites shouldn't be difficult... unless it leads to outrage from the populace I suppose.
