There are differences which prove that GDPR is far from perfect, but lightyears better from what the US permits.
Eg. M$ US
vs M$ EU (Germany)
Oh for sure! No doubt, at least makes people conscious of that. Now, the larger companies don't have any problem bypassing the EU law and the incentives are mainly untouched for them to change.
The gdpr isn't exactly something you quite easily bupass...
Exactm every company in the RU is forced by law to fullfit the minimum of the GDPR to be able to sell their product, the fines are high, even for Google, MS and META, Nusk even said taking X out of the EU (I would approve it).
