I wish it would be more enforced and controlled tho.

Everyone just gets away with everything.
Recently a bit dutch ISP was hacked and it turned out they kept millions of former customers' details way way beyond any normal lifecycle term. People were still in there that hadn't had anything to do with that company for a decade. This is illegal in the EU but even after this practice was exposed by the leak, the personal data authority just let it all slide.
They also sent out a press release pooh-poohing the consequences for affected (ex-)customers and all they did in compensation was to give a "free" antimalware subscription that was basically advertising just like the few months of mcafee crap you get with a new computer. But all we get from regulators and politicians alike is crickets.
