Why is Data Privacy So Challenging?

You've likely encountered resistance when discussing GDPR. It's often perceived as boring and hindering "real" business. However, while AI is a "hot" topic, many organizations are overlooking the critical need for robust privacy measures. Ignoring data protection is a risky path, as evidenced by substantial GDPR fines levied against major companies like Google and Facebook – with potential class action consequences reaching billions. Data breaches create opportunities for legal action and significant financial burdens.
