The interesting thing specifically about the fonts case is that, unlike other privacy regulation that defines only fines, and not compensation/damages (fines are levied by the data protection authorities). However in the font case there was a precedent that awarded damages to the claimant in the tune of 500€. Now we see a wave of ambulance chasing lawyers exploiting this ruling to shake up companies. Sad, but potentially useful for privacy. IANAL and all that jazz.
