  that's a crazy small amount. This means Facebook can just lie to the EU whenever and pay a small fine.

  u think 110mln€ matters to a 19bln$ takeover? significant fine would be 10bln€ or 1 month service stop . 110mln€ it’s cheap for our data

  Facebook obviously planned to break most crucial rule, lied and got the data they wanted. The fine is calculated and nothing to them.

  110 million Euros are a lot of pennies, that's one hell of a jar.

  That has to be a joke. VW has to pay billions for their lies and the EU Commisiion lets facebook get away with only 100 mio €? What a shame.
