You Know GDPR Is Good Based on Who Hates It

An opinion piece argues that GDPR's critics — mostly US tech executives and commentators — are themselves proof that the regulation works, since their hatred reflects lost power over personal data. It traces GDPR's global spread (the 'Brussels Effect'), its influence on Japan's privacy law, the Max Schrems case that killed Safe Harbor, and contrasts EU privacy-as-human-right framing with the US's market-based approach. It ties America's lack of federal privacy regulation to post-9/11 surveillance exceptionalism, corporate lobbying, and Shoshana Zuboff's concept of surveillance capitalism, predicting privacy regulation will eventually become normalized like seatbelts or smoking bans.
