> we have GDPR in order to punish intentional bad behavior, not to prosecute incompetence

That was exclude any data breaches though, wouldn't it? Because they are always incompetence rather than intentional bad behaviour on the part of the breached companies.




Data breach will not disappear thanks to GDPR. GDPR tell you that you must, if possible, notify in case of data breach.


Correct but incomplete: GDPR also tells you to use appropriate measures to prevent breaches. And of course if there was a breach, your measures were not appropriate so you need to change them.
